An Excellent Book for Wargamers
There is little to add to the some of the excellent reviws previously listed. The documentation and bibliography is impressive as well as the author's willingness to discuss alternate interpretations of key historical events. The book is well written; but it is the numerous and well-drawn maps that I found particularly impressive.My hobby is wargaming; and for those that share this hobby, this book is a gem. Think of it; 35 possible scenarios complete with maps ranging from Ancient Egyptian vs Ancient Syrian to Mondern Israelis vs Arabs...and even Armageddon itself. This can be considered either a "future" or a "fantasy" battle based upon your preferences. All of these battles could be gamed upon one large map or playing area stretching from Megiddo in the West to Mts Tabor, Gilboa, and Moreh in the East,\.

Fine Book
This book is beyond a doubt the most informative one I have ever read on the history of Israel and the battles the Jezreel Valley.The reader will be amazed at all the action that took place in Israel that is not made known in most history books. This book is well documented, and contains maps of each battle.It is easy to understand what each army was doing. The Bible scholar who wants a deeper understanding of what took place in the history of Israel will find this book follows the scripture events. It should be noted that the author expresses in detail when there is archaeological proof of events and when there is not. It is left to the reader to make the judgment as to whether or not to accept the scripture account. This book will be an excellent addition to my library. I highly recommend it.

Great book
This is a great book. It is technical biblical archealogy, but covers a wide span of time. The book was used, but in excellent condition. In fact, it seemed brand new. The vendor sent it to me in a timely fashion.If you like ancient history, this is a good book to explore.

Faded reprint.
The letters in the book were so light that I had to shine a light on the page while reading it. The book itself had great information so far
