The Druzes and the Maronites Under the Turkish Rule from 1840 to 1860 is a historical book written by Colonel Charles Churchill. The book provides a detailed account of the political and social conditions of the Druze and Maronite communities in Lebanon during the Ottoman Empire's rule. The author examines the conflicts and tensions between the two communities, as well as their interactions with the Ottoman authorities. The book covers the period from 1840 to 1860, which was a time of significant political upheaval in the region. Churchill draws on a range of primary sources, including official documents and personal accounts, to provide a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the period. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Middle Eastern history, as well as anyone interested in the complex dynamics of intercommunal relations in the region.1862. Colonel Charles Henry Churchill writes in the preface that: Although some months have elapsed since the appalling intelligence of the massacres in Syria burst upon the civilised world...a full appreciation of their meaning can only be attained by a consideration of the various causes which, accumulating and gathering strength through the preceding twenty years, at last culminated in that extraordinary calamity. Through his residence in Lebanon, Churchill gained firsthand knowledge of the mind of the two great sects, the Druzes and the Maronites, into which its population is divided, and shares his insights as to what brought about this horrific turn of events.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
