In this beautifully illustrated book, historian Simon Sebag Montefiore tells thirty of the most remarkable stories in the city's 3,000-year history. By explaining the Middle East's political, religious and ethnic divisions, from 1000 BCE to 2000, the book becomes an essential guide to understanding today's world.<BR><BR>Based on the seminal classic Jerusalem: A Biography, and vividly brought to life by illustrators Rui Ricardo and Catherine Rowe.
