This book tells the story of the creation of Israeli Archaeology in the 1950's and early 1960's. Unlike other books on the archaeology of the 'holy-land', it isn't just a chronological parade of important excavations and nice finds, but a history of intrigues, budgets, failures and, above all, dreams.
