The Road To Zion

From Ancient Rome, to Czarist and Communist Russia, throughthe white palaces of the Muslim caliphate of Al-Andalus and, finally, to the sandy soil of the Promised Land, soaked with the blood alike of Arabs and the heroic pioneers of the State of Israel; many roads lead the travels of the race of Don Emanuel, tenth Chief of the Jews of Cordova, to a new hope and new beginning, born of strife and terror. This is a rich tapestry of a novel which embraces the troubled history of a nation, through centuries of persecution, to the upheavals and struggles from which was born the still endangered nation of Israel. Jacob Avisar has created a memorable saga which will impress itself vividly on the inner vision of the reader.
