Since the ultimate end of man is pleasure achievement, reading and turning over the book¿s pages could stand as the one digging for such treasure which is soon found. Therefore, the more poems you read the more hospitalized you feel, and because the reader does not want to wade into exaggeration or to feel any touch of magic; he will relax finding himself in an eastern crest seeking cool air of the summer and cozy shelter of winter, all of these and beyond that lies here among the wisdom-like tutorial poems¿it is the window that overlooks man¿s path¿ it is the halo of experience in life ¿

Handling this book and turning over the pages, your eyes never grew weary or your brain numbed by monotonous repetition of idle speech, on the contrary you feel more fresh the more you jumped from page to page, for every page has its own lights, has its own guidance to safety in life and the hereafter. You feel a respectful guest at the premises of the writer who overflows your life with mellifluous speeches that leads you to a sunny velvet ground with birds chirping around, perching and making off. The speech that you are reading never puts you in an utter isolation or in heat-crazed thirst, so your happiness is designed for my delight and vice versa. That is offering these tutorial-like poems means that I pave the way to the readers, the way which leads them to settle tranquilly down at a station never heard of before, a station where never feel cold nor hot while reading through the poems of this book. The reader here, feels in a lushly green as a vineyard flourished with the opulence of the speeches never heard alike. So to avoid tantalization, possessing a copy is the shield through which you never search for your quest, but your quest would settle in your lap.

It is very much true that the best companion, as the Arab poet said, is a book, for the book is the light which paves the way to the astray who is unable to reach his destination. However the real competition among the writers is how to captivate the heart and the eyes of the readers. Hence I am in the field for this purpose. The book paves the way to the reader who may wade into the images of the Arabs as depicted by the Victorian travelers to the east, then it offers the moral lessons of determination in the twentieth century novels. The images of the Jews throughout English literature for a considerable period of time will be there showing their social value among the civilized Europeans. The book finally offers, in detail, the scientific motives that stood behind the Victorian travelers¿ journeys to the East. To open a new book is as if we meet a bunch of new people of different moods and views, but having traveled with this book, this obsession soon is vanished and you become so a dear guest to so a hospitalized host.
