Summary:
"While deeply erudite on the myriad factors that have shaped the history of Israel, 'The Land of Blood and Honey' also offers a lively examination of the Israeli people themselves. The author deftly considers their rich social, cultural, and religious traditions, as well as the dynamic tensions between the traditional and modern, Orthodox and secular, and even between the sexes" --Cover, p. 2.
