Journey into the lands east of the Jordan, with expert observations from an era of early exploration. This nonfiction travel narrative follows Selah Merrill as he and his colleagues survey Moab, Gilead, and Bashan during 1875–1877, blending field notes with personal experiences and historical context.

The book opens with preparations and a vivid portrait of Beirut, then traces expeditions, topographical notes, and encounters with Bedouin life. Rich with sketches, maps, and firsthand impressions, it offers a window into the region’s ruins, routes, and enduring landscapes through the eyes of a 19th‑century archaeologist and explorer.

Detailed itineraries and camp life across diverse terrains from the Jordan Valley to the Lejah and Gilead.

Archaeological observations, site descriptions, and early scientific note‑taking in a time of exploration.

Context on the American Palestine Exploration Society, its advisers, and the project’s scholarly aims.

Illustrations, maps, and period photography that accompany the narrative.

Ideal for readers of travel histories, Biblical landscapes, and early archaeological adventures in the Middle East.
