Sinopsis

Jerusalem Through The Stereoscope is a book published in 1909 by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut. The book is a collection of stereoscopic photographs of Jerusalem, taken during Hurlbut?s travels to the city. Stereoscopic photography involves taking two nearly identical photographs of the same scene, which, when viewed through a special device called a stereoscope, create a three-dimensional image. The book features 100 of these stereoscopic photographs, showcasing various sites and landmarks in Jerusalem, including the Dome of the Rock, the Western Wall, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Each photograph is accompanied by a detailed description of the site, as well as historical and religious information about the location.Hurlbut, a well-known American clergyman and author, was known for his extensive travels throughout the Middle East and his interest in biblical history. This book is a testament to his fascination with Jerusalem and his desire to share the city?s beauty and significance with others.Overall, Jerusalem Through The Stereoscope is a unique and visually stunning book that offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of one of the world?s most important cities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
