About

A vivid and eminently readable story of Jewish history covering 4,000 years, and including extensive illustrations and historical photographs Howard Fast, the bestselling author of Spartacus, tells the sweeping story of the Jewish people and Judaism over four millennia, from their nomadic beginnings and the rise of Moses, to the kings David and Solomon, through the Diaspora and the unthinkable horror of the Holocaust, culminating in the founding of the state of Israel. Fast's gift for storytelling is on full display in this eminently readable and well-researched history.   This ebook features an illustrated biography of Howard Fast including rare photos from the author's estate.
