Walking the Bible: A Photographic Journey

Bruce Feiler recently reprised the journey through the Holy Land that led to his breakthrough bestseller Walking the Bible––this time he took along a documentary film crew. The result will be a heavily marketed PBS series in January 2006 and a lush illustrated book, WALKING THE BIBLE: A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY.

One part adventure story, one part archaeological detective work, one part spiritual exploration, WALKING THE BIBLE: A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY is a fascinating, unprecedented journey––by foot, jeep, rowboat, and camel––through the most famous stories ever told. The combination of beautiful photography and Feiler's evocative prose will irresistibly draw readers into the Holy Land. In these pages the biblical landscape comes alive as Feiler treks though Turkey, Israel, the Palestinian territories, Egypt, the Sinai, and Jordan visiting the actual places where some of history's most famous events took place, from the mountain where Noah's ark landed to the site of the legendary burning bush. He visits the desert outpost in Turkey where Abraham first heard the words of God and sleeps on the summit where Moses overlooked the Promised Land.
