A Brief Pilgrimage in the Holy Land

This series of addresses constitute a unique travelogue from a renowned author and traveler Caroline Hazard. In addition to her ability as a travel writer, Hazard was also an artist and poet. Her talents in this regard are clear to readers of this little book.

Unconventional as a travel journal in its anecdotal narration of her impressions, the overall feel of the book is an experience for any armchair adventurer.

Her talents in this regard are clear to readers of this little book.

The regions covered in her account are the region of Mount Carmel, the Mount of the Beatitudes, the Sea of Galilee, Capernaum, the Plain of Sharon, Joppa, Bethlehem, Jericho, the Jordan River and Dead Sea, the wilderness, and Jerusalem.

Caroline Hazard (1856-1945) was a philanthropist born into a socially prominent Rhode Island family. She was privately tutored by faculty at Brown University and became well know for her travels and her writing. She was the fifth president of Wellesley College and continued her writing well beyond her retirement from that post.
