A Plain Man in the Holy Land

Once within the reach of only a privileged few, a pilgrimage to the Holy Land is nowadays made by many thousands of ordinary men and women every year. This is a book written by one who has intimate and extensive knowledge of the Christian places in the Holy Land. He writes for those who have been on a Holy Land pilgrimage and for those who hope to go on one but also for all who never will. Written in the form of a description of an actual Holy Land pilgrimage, the book takes the reader on a magic carpet of imagination round the principal Christian places there, accompanying the narrative with photographic illustrations.

About the author

This book was initially based on real chickens and observing a hen that just would not stop escaping. As it developed it became influenced by what I learned from the works of Orwell and others as well as current events and life itself.
