註釋

In 1856, Francis Frith, photographer, set sail for what he called "the two most interesting lands of the globe--Egypt and Palestine." He was thirty-four at the time, at the beginning of a forty-year career that was to establish him as the first and greatest commercial photographer in England. The photographs and volumes that Frith produced from his three Middle East trips were not only the earliest and best of his professional output, but some of the earliest and finest on the subject as a whole. Gathered here are seventy-two of Frith's finest photographs of Egypt and the Holy Land.
