Review by Horn Book Review

Color phot. Through an intriguing text and striking photographs of archaeological finds, this compelling title gives historical perspective on the ancient peoples of the Holy Land, from the Israelites to the Greeks. Agriculture, clothing, jewelry, weaponry, art, and trade practices are brought to life in this survey of an area that has been in turmoil since ancient times. Ind.
