Praise for this book

"Hugely impressive... deeply researched, written with flair and passion, and enriched throughout with Azar's beautiful photography. All the historic sites get their due, but so do the foods, costumes, arts and traditions of the Palestinians... this enticing and absorbing book genuinely does what its genre should: it makes you want to go there."
"Valuable...This is truly a guidebook, a resource for readers seeking information about the cultural, social, and geographic character of Palestine, a region with a long history but no current political existence."
