About the book

Simon Sebag Montefiore's Jerusalem: The Biography traces the history of Jerusalem from the ancient world to modern times through the rulers, families, conquerors, pilgrims and believers who shaped the city. Moving across Jewish, Christian and Islamic history, it covers figures and events from King David and Herod to the Crusades, Ottoman rule, the British Mandate and the Arab-Israeli conflict. The book presents Jerusalem as both a real city and a powerful religious and political symbol.
