A millennial land where history, faith, and tradition are so deeply rooted as to fuse into a single cultural horizon. A country, a crossroads of people and armies, contested since its beginnings and inflamed by political and religious conflicts. Sacred places, places of faith, marvelous archaeological sites, resorts outfitted to satisfy the needs of mass tourism, arid deserts, verdant agricultural regions. And a city, Jerusalem, sacred to the three principal monotheistic religions. This and many other aspects make the Holy Land a place unique in the world. The splendid images published in this book will introduce readers to it and help them appreciate it. AUTHOR: Carlo Giorgi is a journalist and editor of the Italian magazine Terrasanta (Holy Land), published by the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land. He has traveled to the Middle East numerous times to report on the lives of local Christians. ILLUSTRATIONS: colour throughout
