Garden City, NY: Doubleday And Company, Inc., 1952. 350 pages with a Selective Name Index. Black cloth paste on titles that are blue with gold lettering. Map endpapers. Tight book with no marks or stamps. Interior text pages are white with no defects noted. With a starting point of the two simultaneous catastrophes described in the book of Exodus and in Egyptian documents, the author reconstructs the political and cultural histories of the nations of the ancient world. His reconstruction places before the reader this question: Are six hundred years missing in Israel's history, or have six hundred ghost years crept into Egyptian history? This book covers the period dealt with in Worlds in Collision -- the eight hundred years from the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to the invasion of Palestine by Sennacherib in 687 before the present era, and the additional three and a half centuries to Alexander of Macedonia, altogether twelve hundred years of the history of the ancient East. But whereas the first work concentrated on the description of the physical history of the period, the present work deals with its political and cultural aspects. The occurrence of a widespread natural catastrophe serves here only as the point of departure for constructing a revised chronology of the times and lands under consideration. The author searched the records of one land after another and went from one generation to another, taking from everywhere hints and clues, evidence and proof. Because he had to discover and to collate them, this book is written like a detective story. In detective work unexpected associations are often built on minute details: a fingerprint on a bar of metal, a hair on a window sill, a burnt-out match in the bushes. Some details of an archaeological, chronological, or paleographic nature may seem minor matters, but they are the fingerprints of an investigation in which the history of many nations in many generations is vitally involved. Contents in Eight Chapters: In Search of a Link Between Egyptian and Israelite Histories, The Hyksos, The Queen of Sheba, The Temple in Jerusalem, Ras Shamba, The El-Amarna Letters, The El-Amarna Letter Continued and The El-Amarna Letters Concluded. .
