The Saint of Beersheba
Weingrod presents an anthropological study of the development of a new Jewish saint, or zaddikin Israel and of the annual pilgrimage to his enshrined grave by thousands of North African Jews. It is the fascinating story of how Rabbi Chayim Chouri, an aged Tunisian rabbi, became famed as the "Saint of Beersheba," after his death in the 1950s. The author focuses upon the meaning of this event in the lives of the participants, and interprets the relevance of mystical-religious traditions to present-day Israeli society, politics, and culture. It includes a photographic essay that brilliantly evokes the joyful events that occur during the ritual and festivity of the pilgrimage.

The Beersheba Conspiracy
After six months of fruitful peace talks, the entire Middle East suddenly explodes in a rapidly-escalating nightmare of terrorism. No one, no nation,no zealot group, is claiming responsibility. Yet the region catapults toward all-out war for the first time in forty years. Austin Brandt, former CIA sector chief for the region, is forced back into the violent life he left eight years before when his wife was killed on a Jerusalem street.

With Samantha Richter, the beautiful German financial wizzard who holds the keys to the conspiracy's money, he careens through Washington, Europe and the Middle East in a desparate attempt to stop the terror in time.
Making Israel
Benny Morris is the founding father of the New Historians, a group of Israeli scholars who have challenged long-established perceptions about the origins of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Their research rigorously documented crimes and atrocities committed by the Israeli armed forces, including rape, torture, and ethnic cleansing. With Making Israel, Morris brings together the first collection of translated articles on the New History by leading Zionist and revisionist Israeli historians, providing Americans with a firsthand view of this important debate and enabling a better understanding of how the New Historians have influenced Israelis' awareness of their own past. "The study of Israe...
