First published in 1931, History of Palestine is the dramatic picture of the Holy Land to which Jews returned after many centuries. The author has written the history of Palestine of 4000 years with the mind of the scholar and the heart of the religious mystic. Divided into three parts-pre-Israelite Palestine; Palestine, the promised land of the Hebrews; and Palestine, the holy land of Christendom, this book will appeal to students and researchers of history and general readers interested in the topic.
