Abraham is the patriarch of three great world religions. Bruce Feiler helps us understand why with evidence from the past and the present. He not only tells the story of Abraham from what has been written in scripture but also by taking the reader on a journey through the world's most volatile region. He is a great writer and leaves the reader with an uplifting vision of unity that redefines what we think about our world situation, our future and ourselves. Get out your dictionary. Feiler's vocabulary is amazing.

This is a very interesting book on how the three major religions have one figure in common. I was unaware of this and I really enjoyed learning about it. In these days and times when the religions seem at odds with each other, this is a reminder that we do have something in common besides God. We all believe in Abraham.

This is an excellent read and had me "thinking outside the box."
Mr. Feiler's research is so detailed and helped me understand the passion the 3 faiths have towards the Patriarch, Abraham.
