Description
Flamingo, 1998. Good second-hand condition.
A rich stew of history and travel narrative spiced with anecdote, opinion and bon mots... Dalrymple digs deep to present that case of the Middle East's downtrodden Christians. More hard-hitting than his previous books, From the Holy Mountain is driven by indignation. Dalrymple brings the past alive wonderfully, combining flashes of lightly-worn scholarship with a powerful sense of place and the immediacy of the best journalism. But more than that it is a passionate cri de coeur for a forgotten people which few readers will be able to forget....
