5-0 out of 5 stars A must have for pilgrim travel to Israel
This is a wonderful little book that contains scriptural references for virtually all of the traditional Christian sites in Israel. It is invaluable to take along when viewing the various religious sites so that their biblical mention can be easily found and read. When I lead tours to the Holy Land, this book is one of three that I advise visitors to consider taking with them (the others are, "Holy Land" by Jerome Murphy-O'Connor, and "The Millennium Guide for Pilgrims to the Holy Land", by James H. Charlesworth.

4-0 out of 5 stars AN OUTSTANDING WORK
As a traveller to the land of Israel twelve times I have been privileged to see first rate the expertise that went into the pages of this book and I have had many positve comments from those I have shared the book with. Apreacher's son describes the part on the "Ark of The Covenant" asan exceptional writing done by an expert in her field. The book is a mustfor anyone going to the Holyland.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Guide
This is a handy little guide book that could travel with you as you visit the sites mentioned.It lists the history of each place and other interesting facts.It has several useful lists of information at the backof the book. Mrs. Crown-Tamir knows her stuff and has put together auseful, inexpensive guide. I found myself wishing for a large foldout mapto see all the places named, however that would probably make the book tooexpensive. ... Read more

Editorial Review

"The hotel I wanted had no address." Thus begins Annie Caulfield's journey through Jordan, an odyssey inspired by an intrepid female traveler from an earlier time, Gertrude Bell. But whereas Gertrude went to the desert to forget a love, Ms. Caulfield discovers one there--Rathwan, a Bedouin man with film-star looks. In her sympathetic exploration of modern Arab culture, Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars A very good account of a near forbidden relationship
This book illustrates a bitter sweet love story between a western woman and her younger middle eastern lover. The lovers may have married if it weren't for the stubborness of each to keep their native lifestyles,or the ambigous treatment of the author. The entire story is exquistely lace with erotic tension, it is an intellectual racy read.

3-0 out of 5 stars Jordan A Treasure
I have been to Jordan several times and have made friends there.I was so pleased to find a book from a Western standpoint.I, however, was disappointed that more of the romance between the woman and the man, and the culture was not shared.I felt Anne was holding back for Rathwan's sake.If this is the case then I wished she would have changed the names to protect people's feelings and tell the whole story on how it felt to love a man from a very different culture.5-0 out of 5 stars Kingdom of the Fimstars
A poignant and touching travelogue about an English womens love affair in modern day Jordan.The authoress realizes that the religious and social morass of her relationship cannot be overcome. Caulfield paints a colorful potrait of the culture and city of Amman, her characterizations add a sense of reality to the whole escapade.She shows that her love will not come to fruition because of the cultural differences. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars "Which Way?"The Driver Said and Other Tales
Having needed to help my guide/driver navigate the backroads of Syria a month ago, I can say with total confidence that Neos Guide is an "Absolute Must Have" book along with the Lonely Planet "Syria".The city maps especially are extemely clear and necessary, the cities and historic sites are well described, and the recomended selection of sites to see, is superior to suggestions offered by local guides.Trust your book, your guide's actual travel experiences may be limited.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Don't Leave for Jordan Without It
Jordan is a country that is known to most Westerners mainly for its front-line role in the Arab-Israeli conflict; for the spectacular Nabataean temples carved into cliff-faces at Petra; and as the scene of Lawrence of Arabia's adventures during the First World War.Now that it has a formal peace treaty with Israel, more westerners are making their way to Jordan.Those who do will find the Blue Guide to Jordan an invaluable companion.I also recommend it highly to armchair travelers who just want to learn more about this little-known but intriguing country.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to an amazing hiking area.
I hiked for 3 days in the Jordanian Dead Sea Rift using a guide and this book.If I had known about this book (the guide loaned it to me), I would not have needed the guide.It is excellent and unlocks to all readers this amazing hiking area.My favorite hikes be far were the ones up the "wadis" (Canyons) -- cool narrow canyons where the trail is a clear, cool stream.I am eager to return to Jordan to hike many more of the described hikes.Best for the hikes along the Dead Sea Rift.Also has hikes near Petra and two at Wadi Rum.Wonderful book despite its steep price.

5-0 out of 5 stars a superb trekking guidebook
Most of the exploration literature about this amazing stretch of land was written in the 19th and early 20th century, and was devoted mainly to biblical archaeology and to geographic descriptions of desert expanses. It is only recently that numerous beauty spots are beginning to be revealed hidden in the darkness of the gorges amidst the spray of waterfalls, springs and hanging gardens - all exciting, but vulnerable places. If they were destined to be revealed, let it be in the way of Itai Haviv.The book's accurate route descriptions are accompanied by detailed maps, there is valuable practical and regional information and last but not least - dignity and love for humans, plants, animals and lands of the desert. Excerpts from early explorers literature flavor the text in appropriate locations and useful decorative sketches illustrate it. The book's layout is carefully planed creating an atmosphere which contributes to its content. Pleasant to browse through, it feels right in your hand, and you can definitely count on its reliability. (Eli Raz former manager of the Judean Desert field school in Ein Gedi and a BMC guide)

5-0 out of 5 stars Very Useful, practical and well designed book.
I recomend this book based on three routes I treked with my wife. The best one (as well as the longest one) was wadi Hassa (route 21 in the book), it is a wet and full of surprises two days walk.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Good Guide Book...but...
Much more informative than LP's "Jordan & Syria" edition. There are a couple of beautiful pictures of Wadi Rum in here, and some decent background info on archeological sites around Jordan. Border crossing politics are made clear, and how to get around is succint. There is quite a bit of information packed into this book, covering everything from little-known facts about Bedouin life to opening/closing times at Karak Castle. The maps in this book are more useful than some other guides I've seen and I would have given this book 5 stars, but I know of another book superior to this one.... It's Matthew Teller's "Jordan-The Rough Guide".... ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Not recommended
This book gives the basics on where to stay, where to eat and how to get from point A to point B. The background information on the ancient sites is sparse. For better archeological info (out of a guide book) I'd recommend Mathew Teller's "Jordan-The Rough Guide" over this book. It provides more info on Petra and other ancient sites in Jordan, and focuses all its energies on Jordan alone.1-0 out of 5 stars for the ignorant traveler who wants to remain ignorant
Yeah, the guide is full of practical information -- the book is after all for people who are afraid of getting lost or discovering anything for themselves -- but when it comes to informing you accurately and knowledgably on archeology, culture and history, it is a real let down. For the cheapest burger in town, buy this guide; but if you want something intelligent and informed, buy a betterguidebook.

5-0 out of 5 stars Full of useful information
Some of the world's earliest civilizations thrived in what are now Jordan and Syria, and it is therefore not surprising that hundreds of historical and archaeological sites are to be found in the region. This book offers in-depth coverage of the main sites along with clearly written practicalinformation on everything else travelers need to know about to help themmake the most of their visit: historical, cultural, and political notes, ahelpful language section, a detailed glossary, maps, photos, andaccommodation and restaurant listings. Be sure to read the book before yougo, and bring it along with you.Read more
