Trollope began his journey in Beirut, and traveled south to Jaffa, then east to Jerusalem. He visited many of the major religious sites in Palestine, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Western Wall, and the Dome of the Rock. He also traveled to Jericho, Bethlehem, and Hebron.Throughout his journey, Trollope provides detailed descriptions of the people, places, and customs of Palestine. He is particularly interested in the region's history and religion. He also writes extensively about the political situation in Palestine, and the tensions between its different religious groups.A Ride Across Palestine is a valuable historical document, and it is also a well-written and engaging travelogue. Trollope was a keen observer of human nature, and his book provides insights into the lives of the people of Palestine that are still relevant today.In addition to its historical and cultural value, A Ride Across Palestine is also a beautifully written and evocative book. Trollope's descriptions of the landscapes and people of Palestine are vivid and evocative, and his writing is full of wit and charm.
