In August 1864 Andrew Bonar writes in his diary: " I
am now busy in leasure moments with a little book for the Tract Society,
Palestine for the Young. My desire in it is to show saving truth in
connection with cities and country."
In September 1865 he writes:
"To-day I got a very marked and memorable answer to special prayer regarding my
book, Palestine for the Young, which has lain aside for a year, and
about which a few days ago I asked. It is beginning this week to be printed,
and notes came to me after I had three days prayed about it several times. May
the Lord use it, and may this be a token."
