Description

A study of the rise of tourism in the Holy Land, focused on the study of a particular hotel, the Mediterranean, for which the surviving evidence is particularly good. It draws extensively on the archives, both documentary and photographic, of the Palestine Exploration Fund, as well as on its excellent collection of 19th-century travel books.
