“Created in the late 1920s or early 1930s by Philip M. Brown, “A Pilgrimage Through Palestine” borrows its title from a popular book first published in the 1890s. The film travelogue shows views of various cities in British occupied Palestine — today’s State of Israel — including Nazareth, Jericho, Haifa, Tiberius and more. Mandatory Palestine as it was known, was a geopolitical entity under British administration, carved out of Ottoman Southern Syria after World War I. British civil administration in Palestine operated from 1920 until 1948.
