Crossing Jerusalem By Nicholas Woodsworth

I've just bought this excellent book today from Waterstone's in Leeds. It's clearly going to be very helpful in giving me more understanding about Jerusalem. I've started to read it and it begins with the 3 accounts of the Day Of Judgment, Jewish, Christian and Islamic. What a gripping way to begin the book at to hook the reader into delving further in.

I would love to go back there with modern video / digital camera gear to bring home crisper, clearer images and video. Nowhere else in the world quite manages to throw up sharp contrasts and divisions between the three intimately-linked faiths. It's amazing to think how much of the present world's troubles have some kind of religious underpinning relating to the Semitic faiths, the children of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
