Roberts David The Holy Land Syria Idumea Arabia Egypt & Nubia from Drawings made on the spot by David Roberts R.A.

Robert's monumental work was a publishing sensation when it was first published in 1842 bringing to the Victorian public panoramic and topographically accurate views of the sites of the Holy Land and Syria that up till then had been known for the most part from crude engravings. Roberts the son of an Edinburgh shoemaker and born in Stockbridge was enormously proud that subscriptions from Edinburgh amounted to more than £1200 proportionally far greater than those in London. It is very likely that this copy has been in Edinburgh since originally subscribed for in 1842. Abbey Travel 385; Blackmer 1432.
