Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a compelling argument that the Stone of Scone, the coronation stone of British monarchs, is in fact the very stone upon which Jacob rested his head during his famous vision at Luz. The author delves into biblical accounts, tracing the stone's journey from the ancient world to its current resting place in Westminster Abbey. The book explores the profound significance of the Stone as a symbol of the Abrahamic covenant and the birthright of Jacob's descendants, the Israelites. The author's research reveals how the Stone's presence in England might be interpreted as a testament to the Anglo-Israel theory, a controversial concept that suggests a link between the British people and the lost tribes of Israel. This book offers a fascinating exploration of history, faith, and the enduring power of ancient symbols.

Cloth. Condición: Fair. Not Stated Ilustrador. First edition. The first edition of this highly influential Victorian travel guide, complete with six monochrome illustrations. The first edition. Scarce. Collated complete, with six full page monochrome illustrations. The work is a hugely important early Victorian travel guide, purporting the feminist and imperialist values of the author and demonstrating a wider perspective of Victorian understanding of African culture and identity. Interestingly, unlike many other female travel writers of the time, rather than writing about British colonies, the work is focused upon French Algeria and its customs, making it an unusual perspective on the travel genre. The work has a strong focus on the difference in treatment of women in both cultures (Algerian and British) with an emphasis on the perceived better standard to which women are held in the UK in contrast to Algeria. In this sense, the work not only acts as a pioneering piece of travel writing, but also an important work of feminist history and literature.
