MASTERMAN, ERNEST W. GURNEY; SMITH, GEORGE ADAM (PREFACE) — Studies in Galilee

Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1909. First Edition. Hardcover. "Dr. Masterman's book furnishes fresh and notable contributions to our knowledge of so famous a region. it is richly stored with facts; it is lucidly written; and cannot fail to prove alike valuable to the expert and interesting to the ordinary reader. The reader will find a lucid account of Galilee as a whole, its structure, frontiers, divisions, natural products, the resulting characters of its people's life, and its place in history. Will both stimulate and control future discussion of a region which is not only full of many topographical problems but presents these to us in close connection with some of the greatest events of all history." - Preface. xv, [1], [2]-154 pages.
