""The Olive Leaf: A Pilgrimage To Rome, Jerusalem, And Constantinople, In 1867, For The Reunion Of The Faithful"" is a travelogue written by William Wyndham Malet, first published in 1868. The book chronicles Malet's journey to three important religious cities - Rome, Jerusalem, and Constantinople - in the year 1867, with the aim of promoting unity among the faithful. Malet's travelogue is divided into three parts, each detailing his experiences in one of the three cities. In Rome, he describes his encounters with the Pope and other Catholic leaders, as well as his visits to various holy sites such as the Vatican and the Catacombs. In Jerusalem, he recounts his observations of the city's religious diversity, including the tensions between different Christian denominations and the Jewish and Muslim communities. Finally, in Constantinople, he provides an account of his interactions with the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Ottoman Empire.Throughout the book, Malet emphasizes the importance of religious unity and the need for Christians to come together in a spirit of cooperation and understanding. He also reflects on the historical and cultural significance of the places he visits, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the religious and political contexts of these cities. Overall, ""The Olive Leaf"" is a fascinating travelogue and an important historical document that sheds light on the religious and political landscape of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
