“I am waiting, not without some impatience, for the forthcoming “Oriental and Sacred Scenes,” by our esteemed friend, Fisher Howe, Esq. Mr. Howe is a matter-of-fact man, and has the faculty of transferring you to the very spots he describes, and enables you to see them as they actually are.”—Horace Holden
