Lanterns of the king of Galilee : a novel of 18th-century Palestine
xii, 550 pages : illustrations, map ; 23 cm.
In eighteenth-century Palestine, on the shores of Galilee's Lake Tiberias, visionary political and military leader Daher al-Umar al-Zaydani undertakes a journey toward the greatest aim anyone could hope to achieve in his day: the establishment of an autonomous Arab state. To do so he must challenge the rule of the greatest power in the world at the time, the Ottoman Empire, while translating the ideals of human dignity, justice and religious tolerance into concrete daily realities.
Ibrahim Nasrallah ; translated by Nancy Roberts.
