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 achievement and tragedy. It spans more than two millennia and has touched most parts of the globe. This atlas undertakes to set forth this history graphically in maps, photographs, drawings, chronologies and commentaries by leading experts. Spread by spread, it covers all of the main themes in Jewish history: the background of the Bible, the movements of tribes, the geographical and political setting, the Jews and Judaism not only into Europe, but as far as China; the scholars and philosophers; the medieval centuries and new diaspora; pogrons and Zionism and new homelands; the disaster of the Holocaust and the founding of Israel. It also covers many aspects of Jewish culture - language, literature, art and music.

Very Good. Size: 9x1x11; Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Tears to jacket. Clean, unmarked pages. This book details key elements of Jewish history and culture: the earliest pre-history and background of the Bible; the movements of the Israelite tribes; the revolts, wars, and religious developments. The growth and maturation of the Jewish faith within the context of Middle Eastern history is chronicled. Also chronicled are the developments of the Diaspora following the cataclysm of exile, and the spread of Jews and Judaism not only into Europe, Asia Minor, and North Africa, but as far away as China and India. Advances by Jews in the areas of philosophy, science, literature, art, theatre, and politics are detailed.
