Excerpt from A Pilgrim in Palestine: Being an Account of Journeys on Foot by the First American, Pilgrim After General Allenby's Recovery of the Holy Land Eleanor Robson and who as Mrs. August Belmont has done such womanly valiant work for the Red Cross, gave me a copy of a letter written by a British Tom my out in Palestine to his wife in Eng land. I have carried it to Palestine and back and from Jaffa to Jericho and from Beersheba to Dan; and now I make it my preface to this unpremeditated book which has grown out of some casual notes made especially for the pastor.
