The Alvin Sherman Library is proud to present an insightful evening with Dr. Neal Asbury discussing Mapping the Holy Land: An Illustrated Atlas.
This event is FREE and open to the public and books will be available for purchase the night of the event!
About the Book:
A stunning journey through the Holy Land, as told by the rare maps and prints that have long inspired Jewish, Christian, and Muslim pilgrimages. From the Roman Empire to the current Israel-Hamas conflict, mapping the Holy Land has been a source of high aspirations and conflict. Sacred to Jews, Christians, and Muslims, it has inspired pilgrimages and cartographic depictions from Late Antiquity to the Modern Age. Mapping the Holy Land is the first book to chronicle these travels and the maps they produced, illustrated with rare, hand-colored maps and engravings. Authored by Neal Asbury and Jean-Pierre Isbouts, it explores the historical understanding of the Holy Land from Roman times to the modern Israeli-Arab conflict.
