Syria and Asia Minor, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Syria and Asia Minor, Vol. 1 11' was intended (as announced) to complete the description of Syria in the present Part. But, owing to the peculiar interest attaching to that country, and the copiousness of the materials, the Editor has found it impracticable to adhere to this arrangement, so as to do justice to the subject. It has, therefore, been thought advisable to annex to the description of Syria, that of the adjoining pro vmce of Asia Minor, which forms another interest ing portion of the Turkish empire. Parts V. And VI. W111, in consequence, include the remainder of Syria with Asia Minor, - instead of Arabia, as was.
