Guide

Nearly a century has gone by since the first publication of most of the texts below in an English translation. They were published by the Palestine Pilgrims' Text Society under the general editorship of General Sir Charles Wilson, who from his intimate knowledge of the Middle East wrote excellent notes on each text. The great disadvantage of these translations was that they were each published as separate pamphlets, which meant that they were not viewed as a whole, and there was a great deal of useless repetition.

I was therefore delighted to receive the Hakluyt Society's agreement to republish a translation of the texts. And I was also very happy to have as allies the other scholars whose work this volume contains, Doctor Joyce Hill, who is the translator for the Icelandic texts, and Doctor William Ryan who has done a new translation from the Russian original of the Abbot Daniel's Pilgrimage, for in fact the earlier translation by Charles Wilson was from a French translation. To these two 1 am doubly grateful, both for their translations and for the notes they have provided. Unless I have mentioned otherwise, all notes to do with the Icelandic texts are by Hill and the Russian text by Ryan, wherever they happen to be found in this volume. I thank the President and Fellows of Harvard College for their permission to reprint Hill's translation of the extract of Nikuls' itinerary.

I am also most grateful to another author who died in 1933, Guy Le Strange. I have slightly altered his translation of Muhammad al Idrisi's text, mainly by omitting his explanatory passages, but I am proud to include this translation, and to pay a tribute to Le Strange himself, and the great contribution he has made to British studies of the Near East. I also express my gratitude to the Palestine Exploration Fund, who have given me permission to reprint the translation.

I am thankful too to the following people who have helped me in various different ways. First and foremost to my wife Alix, who has been patient in exploring various hypotheses I have tried on her. Then to Dr M. Angold, Dr Peter Edbury, Dr A. M. Gravgaard, Professor A. Kahzdan, Dr , Z. Kedar, Dr Denys Pringle, Professor Jonathan Riley-Smith, Miss Shefaly Rovik and Brother Gilbert Sinden, SSM.

My greatest gratitude also to the British School of Archaeology in Jerusalem, under the roof of whose School I started to write this book, to The Ecumenical Institute, Tantur, and to Dumbarton Oaks, of which I was a Fellow when it was finished.
