This is the book Dec 18, 2008
If you read only one book about jewish history, this should be the one! It blew me away. It makes sense of it all. What a journey.
Very detailed with lots of illustrations Sep 14, 2008
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is very detailed and contains many illustrations. It fascinates me to sit back and think about all the people and details of Jewish history that have played out over many thousands of years.

When given as a gift, this product was really loved- so much that we bought another one for ourselves.

This atlas succeeds beautifully Aug 24, 2007
Few of the world's peoples can boast of a history as long and as varied as that of the Jews, or one encompassing such a range of achievements and tragedy. It spans more than three millennia and has touched most parts of the globe. This text sets forth this history graphically-in nearly a thousand detailed and accurate maps, brilliantly reproduced drawings, photographs, and paintings; plus chronologies and commentaries by dozens of leading experts. The result is a triumph of the bookmaking art-a comprehensive and dependable reference work.
Beyond the strictly historical, the Atlas also deals with many fascinating and important aspects of jewish culture-languages, literature, art, and music.
