Reviews

Scholten must trembling in his grave, not out of indignation, but from exuberance and excitement over this critical and astute recognition of the grandeur of his unfinished work—just over a hundred years since he and his cameras set foot into Palestine just after the end of the Ottoman era and WWI. This book is bound to become the definitive study of Scholten and his world. * Salim Tamari, Professor, Birzeit University, Palestine *
