This amazing little book consists of a jam packed and fascinating synopsis of the history of the Jewish people, from the Bible's introduction of Abraham to the wars for survival of the State of Israel.

It is divided into two major 'Acts' which are themselves subdivided into Parts called 'adventures'. The First Act covers the first two thousand years, from Abraham to the Fall of Masada. Part II of the First Act covers the Jews odyssey into history as nomads; their entry into the Land of Canaan; their search for greener pastures and enslavement in Egypt until they are liberated by Moses and given the Torah by G-D at Mount Sinai, and the period of the Judges and the rule of the first Jewish King, Saul. It notes how although many things have changed, the covenant, the rite of circumcision, and the Land of Israel are still central in the Jewish faith. "If ever these concepts disappear, then the Jews will disapear with them. These perceptions have been the motivating forces in Jewish history and continued to shape Jewish destiny".

It has a great map outlining the journeys of Moses and Abraham, and the boundaries of the Land of Israel. It also outlines how the concept of equality before the law, first appeared in the Torah (the Jewish Bible).

There was one law for all. The punishment was the same for all offenders guilty of the same crime, for the first time in history. History
