Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For thousands of years, great empires and armies fought to conquer a small portion of land. Stories and ruins, Roman glass and Byzantine stone are all that is left of them. Then there are the Jews—less than one percent of the world population. Expelled 2,000 years ago by the Romans, the Jews managed to survive persecution and threats of annihilation. With the vision of Jerusalem in their hearts, they rose from the ashes of the Holocaust. They returned to the land of their fathers. They made the desert bloom and changed the face of technology for the whole world. Meet the people of Israel and explore their vibrant country.
