Excerpt from My Trip to the Orient I have tried to take my readers over land and sea, and let them participate in the various experiences on this trip, and enjoy the sights and scenes which continually met my vision. It was in the divine plan for me to see the land promised to Abraham and his seed forever, so that by personal experience and observation I might bring light and truth to others. The Old Testament brims with new life and inspiration, after one has seen Egypt, the land of the Pharaoh's, where God's ancient peo ple were once in bondage. The history of the exodus bridges the flight of ages, and it seems but yesterday since Miriam and Moses sang their song of deliverance on the banks of the Red Sea. The author. Note - The first edition of M y Trip to the Orient was so well received that it was soon exhausted, but owing to the fact that a number of other books had to be printed, and because issues were still unsettled in the great war, it was considered best to pospone the publishing of the second edition, which seems now to have been providential. Through the delay, proof has been furnished to statements made in the first edition concerning the restoration of Israel.

The illustrious Orient Express, "the king of trains and the train of kings," could carry passengers from Paris to Constantinople in 76 hours, thanks to Belgian engineer Georges Nagelmackers's winning combination of long-distance travel and refinement. Orient Express is a photographic guide to the history and culture surrounding this mythic train and all that took place within, from its notable passengers including Tolstoy and Grace Kelly to the tales crafted by Hemingway and Agatha Christie. In 2016, during FIAC, the International Fair of Contemporary Art, a presentation at the Grand Palais in Paris will highlight the key elements of a trip on the famed rail line, featuring reinterpreted, limited-edition objects.

More than just an account of his travels in Cairo, Beirut, and Constantinople in 1842, Gerard de Nerval's "Journey to the Orient" is a quest for the unknown. If his narrator seems credulous in his retelling of legends of the origins of the pyramids and the mysteries of the Druzes, it is with this purpose in mind. While the Orientalists of his day were confident of having, in the words of Edward Said, "grasped, appropriated, reduced, and codified" the Orient, Nerval's Orient remains elusive, impossible to grasp. Poignantly dramatized in the thematic centerpieces of the tales of the Queen of Sheba and the Caliph Hakim, what takes shape in this visionary travelogue, as the author's hopes are alternately disappointed and rapturously renewed, is the story of the artist's search for the ideal.
