Kitap, Osmanli idaresi altinda Kudüsten gönderilmis bilinen en eski mektuptan baslayarak kaydedilmis en son mektuba kadar olan dönemi iceriyor. Ayni zamanda, baska örnegi bulunmayan birkac mektup ve kartpostala da yer veriyor. Bu üclemenin son kitabi olan ve Filistindeki diger posta subelerini kapsayacak kitabi da yakinda basmayi planliyoruz. OTTOMAN POST IN PALESTINE 1840-1918 VOLUME l JERUSALEM First book in the trilogy of the Ottoman Posts in Palestine covering the Ottoman Field Post Offices in Palestine during the First VVorld War, based on the gold medal winning The Alexander Collection was published in 2000. Following years of meticulous research and additional rare material made it possible for us to publish the second book of the series again based on The Alexander Collection covering the Civil Post Offices in Jerusalem from 1840 to 1918 when the Ottoman rule ended in Palestine. The book tells the story of communication under the Ottoman rule commencing with the earliest known letter recorded from Jerusalem to the latest recorded letter. it also includes several unique letters and postcards within the Holy Land. We are planning to publish the last book in the trilogy covering civil post offices in other parts of the Palestine in the very near future.
