Funny.
I just went through #Michener's bibliography and got stuck on this one, for obvious reasons.
I have read it so far, but I intend to do so.
The Source is an excellent idea, Kevin.👍

Attached: 1 image @[email protected] @[email protected] My choice for today's #BooksThatInfluencedYou is also one from James Michener. I just love how he does his deep history by following fictional families. I've read a bunch of his and not sure which might be the one I'd highlight, but I will definitely choose this one considering that I think a lot of people talking about Israel would benefit from reading this.
