Travels in Syria and the Holy Land, by the late John Lewis Burckhardt; published by the Association for Promoting the Discovery of the Interior Parts of Africa. London: John Murray, 1822. English and some Arabic.
Description of the travels of the Swiss orientalist and traveler Johann Ludwig Burckhardt in Syria and Palestine. Includes seven plates - portrait of the author (lithograph facing title page) and six maps and plans (engravings). Including: a large (folded) map of Syria, Palestine and Egypt; a folded map of Hauran; plans of Jerash and Amman; and more.
Johann Ludwig Burckhardt (1784-1817) was renowned mainly for his rediscovery of the remains of Petra in Jordan. In ca. 1806 he received approval from the London-based Association for Promoting the Discovery of the Interior Parts of Africa to embark on an investigative journey aiming to locate the sources of the Niger River (this is the institution that published the present book). In preparation for this journey, and since he intended to present himself as a Muslim during the research work, he studied Arabic and traveled to the East in order to learn and become familiar with Muslim customs. In 1809 he traveled to Syria, and while there embarked on a number of trips. While traveling he took a Muslim name - Sheikh Ibrahim Ibn Abdallah - and attempted to integrate in the communities he visited. Burckhardt fell ill and died in Cairo before embarking on his journey in Africa, and was buried there in a Muslim cemetery.
[1] leaf, XXIII, [3], 668 pp, + [7] plates. 27 cm. Fair condition. Stains. Dark dampstains to some of the leaves (mostly in the beginning and end of the book). Small tears to the large folded map. One leaf (table of contents) is detached and torn at the margins. Worn, torn and detached binding (as a result, a number of leaves at the beginning and end of the book are detached). Pen inscription on the inner side of the front binding.

Panorama des Heiligen Landes [Panorama of the Holy Land]. Printed by M. Munk, Vienna, [c. 1875].
A lithograph map colored by hand, according to a drawing by Rabbi Chaim Solomon Pinie of Safed.
The map’s format is quite unique: it is divided into five horizontal strips according to the country's regions, arranged from West to East, with East on top. The map includes an impressively detailed description of the towns, sites, springs and mountains in Eretz Israel, including sites and tombs of the righteous, Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, the Western Wall, the Tombs of the Kings, Bethlehem and Rachel's Tomb, Peki'in and the Cave of Rashbi, Safed and the Tombs of the Tana’im and Kabbalists, and more. Surrounded with the Hebrew inscription: "Shape of the Holy Land, its borders, towns and villages, mountains and hills…"
The map was originally printed in 1875 in two versions, on fabric and on paper. This map is of the latter type, an original lithographic printing on paper in black and white, different from later facsimiles. The mountains, seas, some of the buildings and the walls of Jerusalem are hand colored.
61.5X45 cm. Fair condition. Age-toned paper. Tears and many creases. Open tears, affecting text and the map, some repaired. Partly mounted on cardboard.
Not in the Eran Laor Collection of Holy Land maps. Ref.: Wajntraub, Hebrew Maps of the Holy Land, maps 66-66a.
