The invention of the land of Israel : from Holy Land to homeland
Sand, Shlomo2014
Books
'The Invention of the Land of Israel' deconstructs the age-old legends surrounding the Holy Land and the prejudices that continue to suffocate it. Sand's account dissects the concept of 'historical right' and tracks the creation of the modern geopolitical concept of the 'Land of Israel' by 19th-century Evangelical Protestants and Jewish Zionists.
