The Source by James A. Michener & Steve Berry Book Summary

In his signature style of grand storytelling, James A. Michener transports us back thousands of years to the Holy Land. Through the discoveries of modern archaeologists excavating the site of Tell Makor, Michener vividly re-creates life in an ancient city and traces the profound history of the Jewish people—from the persecution of the early Hebrews, the rise of Christianity, and the Crusades to the founding of Israel and the modern conflict in the Middle East. An epic tale of love, strength, and faith, The Source is a richly written saga that encompasses the history of Western civilization and the great religious and cultural ideas that have shaped our world.

BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from James A. Michener's Hawaii.

“A sweeping [novel] filled with excitement—pagan ritual, the clash of armies, ancient and modern: the evolving drama of man’s faith.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer
 
“Magnificent . . . a superlative piece of writing both in scope and technique . . . one of the great books of this generation.”—San Francisco Call Bulletin

A wonderful journey. The scope of this book is amazing, and the historical fiction is well written, entertaining and thought provoking. I highly recommend reading this.

The Source. Michener has no peers so providing only 4 stars just means it was not his best work. He mixed in the fictional city of Makor with real cities and fictional characters with non-fictional characters so I had to wonder at times who and what was real. It was a great story about the Torah which is the basis for for Christianity and Islam. The plight of the Jews is the main focus and the wars among them. He was wrong when he stayed that Josephus did not recognize Christ, a major error considering what a great researcher Michener was. See Antiquities 18 63-64. Love his books though and have read most of them.

The Source. Great reading- took two weeks before Easter. Historical and lyrically beautiful.

Historical Galilee. Great chronological account of the history of the people of Galilee, from the earliest days before farming. The characters are diverse but the bias is mostly from the jewish perspective. Very little to do with Christianity and Islam in comparison but the author does provide some contrast and similarities

Time. It was fabulous in 1965 and its historically fantastic now.

Great book!. Best book I’ve ever read. Have read it 3 times! First time was 1967 on my way to Vietnam.

The Source. Very eye opening about religions the why's and how's! I never knew that the Jewish religion was the oldest continuous religion and they felt they should be persecuted.
