"I must say that I am delighted not only with the content of the book, but also with the overall quality and the presentation and of the illustrations, all of which complement your superb text. I am sure that your clear and concise descriptions of the places, peoples and situations contained in "A Historical Tour of the Holy Land" will be most helpful to all who read it and would be especially helpful to those who are preparing for a Holy Land visit." Rev Geoff and Sheila Breffitt - St. John the Divine, Chester  "The front cover describes your book as a 'concise history' but this is a gross understatement. Every paragraph is a source of detailed information and yet you have achieved a book which is completely readable and in no way 'heavy'. ... Essentailly this book serves as a very readable history of Israel and a comprehensive reference book for use with the Bible." Janet and Bob Toy - Merseyside "You write as you speak when guiding - with clarity, informatively, but in a conversational style which makes the subject easily accessible to those with no previous knowledge of it." Andy and Margaret Wendels - Nottinghamshire "We knew the book would be good just by the way you conducted your tour and the knowledge you exhibited. The reason I want an additional copy is because the autographed copy will be our showpiece to our guests and visitors while the second will be my working copy where I can underline certain passages and add my own notes." Michael Kowalczyk - Arizona "Reading your book was like taking the tour of Israel all over again. You have included so much information, it's amazing. And the illustrations and maps are wonderful." Clair Norman - California "I have found your book to be extremely helpful in putting what we learnt into perspective and I am sure that I shall refer to it time and time again. It is a book not just to be read but one which I feel would make excellent preparation for anyone planning a visit to Israel. ... I found chapters 11 and 12 particularly interesting in that they provide a valuable overview and background to the daily news in the newspapers and on TV." Peter and Vicky Ellis - Cheshire "The book is wonderful ! The layout is attractive, easy to read and user friendly. The maps and charts are clear and helpful. I especially loked the 'boxed' quotations from the Old Testament and other works inserted in the appropriate chapters. I am also glad that you included up-to-date information on the neighbouring middle eastern countries." Jane Echols - Texas The book is offered as recommended reading for all participants in the guides school courses through out Israel. "...A concise chronological history of the Land of Israel, intended as a companion for tourists and pilgrims to Israel as they attempt to make sense of the country's rich and complicated history.The 128 page book contains map, charts and photographs..." |
