This detailed and well-illustrated 1845 study of Jerusalem's topography and antiquities formed part of the contemporary debate around the location of Calvary, supporting the traditionalist argument against some Protestant calls for relocation. For this work, George Williams (1814-78) received a medal for literary merit from Prussia's Frederick William IV.
