A rare collection of five works printed at the Monastry of St.John at Shueir [Shuwair], near Beirut in the Lebanon. The Press was founded by Abdullah Zakher in 1733, continued until 1899, and was most important for its publication of liturgical and other religious works. Some of these appear to be extremely rare as the list of publications printed by Joseph Nasrallah, L'Imprimerie au Liban, Harissa 1949, pp. 37ff lists only one of the works offered here. (5)
