This is a detailed survey map of the west half of Palestine. It represents the composite of 26 survey sheets. This map was useful to the British in their invasion of Palestine in WWI. It includes place names as well as pink shading for more densely populated areas. Some of the place names are translated from Arabic while others represent English translations from the New Testament. Geographical features such as waterways, mount ranges, and banks are carefully detailed.
Notably, this survey fails to include the Suez Canal and Wilderness or Tire which represented significant British military interests at the time. These were canvassed in later mapping projects of 1907.
