Jerusalem : the biography
Sebag Montefiore, Simon, 1965-2011
Book
Jerusalem lies at the centre of the world, the capital of three faiths, the prize of many conquerors, the jewel of many empires, and the eye of the storm of today's battle of civilisations. But the city lacks a biography. This story of Jerusalem is told through the lives of the men and women who created, ruled and inhabited it.
