It is only by very recent exploration and study that many of the more significant of these places and monuments have been certain - ly identified, and not a few of them hav6 never been pictured until now. Last spring the editor of McClure's organized a considerable expedition, and accompan’ ied by a photographer especially skilled and experienced in such work, made a tour of nearly the whole of Palestine, and took photographs of whatever of importance the latest and most authoritative investigations have definitely connected with Biblical incident and history. Special attention was given to the great ancient highway leading from Damascus to Jerusalem and on down through Bethlehem to Hebron; and many views were obtained of localities and objects of the first interest that will be entirely new to the public. They have been reproduced with great care, and will make one of attractive features of McClure’s through the coming months.
