Its stories may be the best known in the world, but its
locations have long been a mystery. Where did Noah's ark
land? Where did Moses receive the Ten Commandments? Where
are the lost cities of Sodom and Gomorrah? Now, in Walking
the Bible: A Photographic Journey, New York Times
bestselling author Bruce Feiler offers an unprecedented
heart-stirring adventure through the landscape of some of
history's most storied events. Featuring Bruce Feiler's own photography as well as his
selections from professional collections, Walking the
Bible: A Photographic Journey brings together breathtaking
vistas, intimate portraits, and fascinating panoramas,
providing firsthand access to the inscrutable land where
three of the world's great religions were born -- and
finally puts a face on the stories that have long inspired
the human spirit. Over several years, Feiler traveled nearly ten thousand
miles through the deserts of the Middle East, which led
first to his runaway national bestseller Walking the Bible.
This new illustrated book follows his route, offering a
thrilling photographic voyage through the actual places of
some of the Bible's most memorable events -- from the
heights of Mount Ararat, where Noah's ark landed, to the
desert outpost in Turkey, where Abraham first heard the
words of God, to the summit where Moses overlooked the
Promised Land. Walking the Bible: A Photographic Journey chronicles a
landscape that nurtured the relationship between humans and
the divine, breathing new meaning into stories that have
been a timeless source of inspiration.
