An historical novel of unprecedented scope, a family saga encompassing ten Golden Ages, spanning 5000 years, from ancient Mesopotamia to Elizabethan England. During the intervening Golden Ages, The Scribe's Family struggles with life's often quirky challenges in Egypt, Crete, Jerusalem, Athens, Rome, Constantinople, Paris and Florence. Imagine a play in which the stage setting changes between acts, from one Golden Age to another, while the characters remain the same, the story a continuous drama. Such is The Scribe's Family, a saga that dramatizes the unchanging character of human nature. The passions that engulfed ordinary people five thousand years ago still do.--Publisher's description.

Israel is Real: Our Answer to the Critics of Zionism By: Benzion Baruch The book provides an alternative, realistic insight about the Israeli-Arab Conflict and how the Jewish State of Israel can and must strengthen itself from the political quagmire that so-called Super Power countries, acting as Third World Brokers, have put Israel through to accept a Two-State solution as the only solution. In addition, Israel is Real: Our Answer to the Critics of Zionism focuses on how Israeli leadership historically has been dismally weak where it has succumbed to these policies at the expense of Israel’s own safety, security, and stability.
