Abraham: A Journey to the Heart of Three Faiths

Sights and Sounds From The Holy Land

Bruce Feiler examines the way Abraham of the Bible; known as the "Father of All Nations", is celebrated by the three major religions of the world - Muslim, Jewish, and Christian. He expands on the life of Abraham and his family as depicted in the Bible, the Torah, and the Koran. I found his observations fascinating, beautifully expressed, and captivating. Any book written by this author is a delight - a feast - a learning experience. Just as his book "Walking The Bible" is a classic, this one is also a spiritual pilgrimage as he seeks out and provides the reader with information you could never imagine. He describes the people past and present who lived and now live in the Holy Land - how they all view Abraham a little differently, as well as how they worship in their own way, together and yet apart,within the Holy Land. I don't know of another person who could write about this subject matter, not offend anyone, and provide the opportunity for an open discussion between people of the three faiths. They really do have some common ground. Abraham - we never knew you! Read this book; you'll love it! Read more
