Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thistle and the Cedar of Lebanon The same hope which animated my labours, and induced me to present them to the public, still cheers me on, namely, that of engaging the attention and exciting the interest of the English nation in the fate and prospects of Syria, my beloved country: a land dear to every thinking mind from its sacred associations, and richly meriting the attention of the man of busi ness and the traveller, from its undeveloped material resources, and from its picturesque beauty and healthy climate. I can only allude to, in order to deplore, the state of war which now agitates and exhausts it; but in whatever manner the dispute may be settled, I have confidence that England and France will see justice done to an outraged country and also, that the patriotic cause of our government will finally triumph over its enemies.
