A City in Triplicate,
By
This review is from: Jerusalem (Great Cities) (Hardcover)
This lovely, large volume is a photo review of Jerusalem. The font is large and attractive. Some pages are hard to read as the text is superimposed on the photographs. The book reviews the history of the city in a a comprehensive nutshell. The sectors of the present city are also described according to the people who live in them. The three religions that claim this holy city (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) are treated in a balanced and objective fashion. I especially liked the description of the Armenian quarter. This book is a conceptualization of Jerusalem rather than a guide book. Topics are handled broadly without many specific details or recommendations.
