There was a man named Victor Geren who specialized in religion, and I assume was some sort of an explorer for Britain. He went on 7 voyages to Israel to record what he sees, in his 7 novels, which can be found today in (I assume) book stores.

This probably doesn't fit this sub very well, but the mapping of Israel in modern times began with him, and his descriptions match the P.E.F. (Palestinian Exploration Fund); a project to map Israel ehich approximately reached a precision of 1:50000 cm. This mapping was released after his journies were written, and all of this information I have only heard and not read, and unfortunetaly I couldn't find him on the internet.

I want more information on him, if you're familiar with what I'm writting here, please tell me where can I read more of this entire journy, and perhaps even, I'd be interested on the mapping of Israel itself. That is, I haven't gone to ask for the books yet, I only now heard of this man in a trip for extensive material before I guide my youth group to the same places Victor was.

Thanks in advance, though I'll probably won't get answers here.

His name was Victor Guérin and he was French. You can find his work on archive.org, in French, and one translation in Hebrew.
