Today's time traveling expedition courtesy of the Library of Congress takes us to the Holy Land between 1890 and 1900.
The Holy Land of that era, which includes modern Israel, Lebanon and other territories, was controlled by the Ottoman Empire. It is a pastoral land that looks like it had changed little since the Biblical era.
