About this title

Review:

"A monumental work!"

-- "Cleveland Press"

"Moving, fascinating, informative.... No other book on this subject...comes close to O Jerusalem!"

-- "Los Angeles Times"

"It reads like a whodunit, and you turn page after page to see what happens next....The pace is so swift, the drama so heightened by alternating flashes of tragedy and comedy that one has to stop frequently to catch one's breath and marvel."

-- "The New York Times Book Review"

"A remarkable book...a history that not only clarifies the military and political events of the war but brings its human dimensions vividly to life."

-- "The National Observer"

"A story as dramatic, as miraculous, as full of wonders as any ever told."

-- "The New York Times Book Review"
