Small octavo. Pp. 54. Plus 34 halftone photographic plates, printed on different paper, bound in. Original pictorial grey card wrappers, bit rubbed, corner creased, upper wrapper with tape repair for short tear. Else, a fine copy. ~ A fascinating small book, written and photographed by the Senior Chaplain to the Forces, Egyptian Expeditionary Force, with the intention to provide His Majesty's soldiers with a handy book of reference to Palestine and the Holy Land. The book contains a relatively large number of plates, depicting ancient and new towns and villages, holy shrines, landscapes, historical monuments and sites, and some inhabitants. Most fascinating are the images of pure military interest: a derelict tank; a cannon named "Jericho Jane"; and a mobile gun, nicknamed the "Finish Turk". Reverend Payne's text is a wonderful combination of historical background, actual information, traveller's notations, and Biblical contemplations. He previously wrote "Jerusalem, the City of the Great King" which was meant to serve as a guide book to Jerusalem. Both these books were sold in army canteen huts. In his Foreword, Philip W. Chetwode, Late Commanding 20th Army Corps, Palestine, writes: "I feel sure that all soldiers who find themselves, now or in the future, serving in Palestine, will be grateful to him for having provided them with such a useful book which cannot fail to add to the interest of the time they spend in the Holy Land."

Crown octavo. Pp. 383. Decorative initials. Printed on laid paper. Hardcover, original wine red cloth, decorated in gilt, bookplate, stamp, minor pencil underlining. In fine condition. A handsome copy. ~ First edition. "These chapters are called 'Travel-Studies,' to indicate that they combine the impressions of travel with the results of study before and after travel (.) Instead of going in detail over the Holy Land, I have selected the chief places in it, and a few which are closely connected with it, and then tried to seize upon and bring into clear view the main interest of these places. Other parts of the country are spoken of in connection with them." The author, Perth, 1896.
