Sayce, A. H. (Archibald Henry)
Hittites
"This is one of the most interesting of the series to which it
belongs. It is the result of personal observation, and the work
of a practised geological observer.... The questions raised in
this little volume are discussed in the light of the most
advanced knowledge and of large scientific faculty, and at the
same time with great religious reverence."--_British Quarterly
Review._

convenient, the woodcuts are good, the information is clear,
exact, and drawn from the best authorities, as well as from the
writer's observation as a traveller and student of natural history
in Palestine and Syria. Commendable care is shown in the
elucidation of obscure points and dubious translations. A
classified list of the various animals, fish, birds, and reptiles,
and an index to Scripture references are appended, and will be of
great assistance to readers and teachers."--_Saturday Review._
"The most complete, handy, and accurate account of the animals
mentioned in Scripture. The illustrations enhance the value of the
book."--_British Weekly._
