Jewish Journeys [Paperback]

This beautifully illustrated history book is the first volume to be published in a planned six-volume series directed at Jewish young adults. It is noteworthy that this inaugural volume tells the story of Jews returning to the Land of Israel, while the Diaspora continues to thrive in a world of superpowers that clash and cooperate - a period not unlike our own. We hope that this series will go some way to rectify the ignorance of our unique, long, and complex history, and to enable future Jewish adults to understand both their past and ground their future in a changing and evolving world.

Praise for Jewish Journeys:
"When I discovered my Jewish identity as a young man in the Soviet Union, Jewish history connected me to the Jewish past and empowered me to pursue a Jewish future. I hope this book can offer the same feeling of connection and empowerment to our young generation."
- Natan Sharansky

"Jewish Journeys is a supremely accessible and essential introduction to Jewish history. Its content will appeal to all ages. I only wish this book was available when I was young." - Ambassador Dr. Michael B. Oren

"This book represents a major step forward for all of us who care about teaching Jewish history accurately and effectively. It is authoritative and accessible, richly researched, intelligently framed, and beautifully presented. It educates and enlightens but doesn't pander."
- Prof. Gil Troy, McGill University

"Combining traditional sources with the latest historical and archaeological findings, and intellectual rigor with passionate engagement, this book is an exquisite rendering of the Jewish story."
- Yossi Klein Halevi, Shalom Hartman Institute

"It is imperative to have a book that puts the landscape and biblical verses into historical context. Only then will you gain a physical, emotional, and intellectual attachment to our land. This is such a book."
- Dr. Ruth Calderon, Founder of Alma, Home for Hebrew Culture

"Tuvia Book has a unique gift for sharing the Jewish story with both clarity and passion; thanks to this wonderful book, students everywhere will have the privilege of calling him their teacher and guide."
