The Promised Land: The Birth of the Jewish People

40 pp. | Boyds | September, 2002 | Trade ISBN 1-56397-332-4 $$21.95
(3) 4-6 A compelling look at the early history of the Jewish people focuses on the covenant initiated by God that binds Abraham and his descendants to the land we now call Israel. Extensive biblical quotations are used, but it is the intimate, passionate voice of the storyteller that is the book's strength. An elongated trim size lends elegance, as do the many striking paintings throughout.
