PREFACE

Being so fully occupied at present with work in connection with the Great European War, I have not the time to write a worthy preface to this remarkably interesting book, but i warmly commend my good friend Colonel Green’s delightful narrative and description as a notable contribution to the literature of the fascinating Island of Cyprus, so little known to average Briton of to-day. As a firm believer in British-Israel truth, I especially ask all the Anglo-Israelites and students of history and geography to carefully study these pages, and I venture to suggest that the Appendix should be read first.

This book will take no mean place among the nearly 900 volumes which have been  written on this charming Island of the Mediterranean, and which form an extraordinary and unique collection in our Royal Colonial Institute Library,
