Spying Out Zion
Smertenko, Johan | September 11, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about two books related to Palestine. One of the books under discussion is titled, Those Ancient Lands. Being a Journey to Palestine, written by Louis Golding. The other book under discussion is titled, Reports of the Experts Submitted to the Joint Palestine Survey Commission. It is extraordinarily illuminating to contrast these two books, to balance the artist's impressions against the experts' opinions, to fill in his generalizations with their detailed statistics, to light up their depressing tables with the flame of his optimism.
