Hershel Shanks

Continuum £19.99 (978-0-8264-2884-4)

Re-used in the wall of an Omayyad palace built adjacent to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem in the seventh century, these lie where they were thrown down by Roman soldiers suppressing the First Jewish Revolt. From the book, which starts with the Islamic Golden Dome and digs back down the centuries through a Roman temple, and Herod's Mount, to Solomon's Temple itself.
