Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My Three Days in Gilead
Man can have but one paradise. My paradise is heaven; I cannot enter yonder city a city to - day of unsurpassed beauty, when viewed from the distance, with its white domes and slender minarets rising above the shrub bery and trees of its thirty thousand gardens. Here is this old city; in this historic city; in this beautiful city; in Damascus, I greet you and extend to you an invitation to join me in my proposed trip through Gilead.
