Continuing the tour he began in My Winter on the Nile, Warner lands at Jaffa in 1875 and rides up to Jerusalem. He explores the holy places and their neighbourhoods, goes down to Jericho and the Dead Sea, visits Bethlehem and the monastery of Mar Saba, watches the fair of Moses and calls on the Armenian Patriarch, then travels along the Syrian coast and inland.
