Book Summary
"Jerusalem Diaries II takes readers to hot-spots in eastern and western parts of the city; to Jerusalem neighborhoods under fire; to the homes of victims of Arab terror; to northern Israel during last summer's Second Lebanon War and to cultural and religious events that go on despite the tensions. Jerusalem Diaries II also covers events in Gaza, Hebron and Bethlehem--places in the headlines over the past few years. Jerusalem Diaries II , published by Xulon Press, is a follow-up to Jerusalem Diaries: In Tense Times (Gefen 2002). Both first-person accounts follow life in Israel, where Ms. Balint has made her home for the past decade. "
