Exploring the cultures and civilizations of Israel, the land where Judaism, Christianity and Islam meet, this book examines the River Jordan, the hills of Galilee, Israelite cities, Byzantine churches and Arab mosques. The principal archaeological sites are looked at, including cities such as Masada, Bethlehem and Jerusalem, as well as some of the less familiar regions of the deserts and mountains. Site plans, aerial views and reconstruction drawings are provided.
