Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Yusef, or the Journey of the Frangi: A Crusade in the East
It will be seen that I have not felt it to be my duty to make a desponding pilgrimage through the Holy Land for upon a careful perusal of the Scriptures, I can find nothing said against a cheerful frame of mind. If there be any person, however, who may think that a traveler has no right to be lively in that part of the world, I beg that he will suspend his judgment till I visit Jerusalem again in which event he may depend upon it I shall use every exertion to be depressed in spirits, and produce something uncommonly heavy and substantial.
