Jerusalem Three Thousand Years

The history of Jerusalem is the history of the entire world. It is the temple of one god, the capital of two peoples, the holy land of three major religions, a city with two existences, heaven and earth; it is a strategic point in the conflict of civilizations, a place that haunts the world, a place where conspiracies, fictional legends and 24-hour news take place. "Master Storyteller" Simon Montefiore vividly tells the past and present life of Jerusalem based on the competition between the three major religions around the "Holy City" and the rise and fall of several major families in chronological order. The author uses a large number of field surveys and documentary research to present the city's three thousand years of magnificent history from an objective and neutral perspective through the lives of soldiers and prophets, poets and kings, farmers and musicians, and the families who shaped Jerusalem, and restores the real Jerusalem...
