This succinct narrative effortlessly takes us through a millennium and a half of the formative history of the land that is at the center of geopolitics today. As the first part of a breathtaking account that takes us hand-in-hand through the landmark history of the land variously described as "The Holy Land", “The Promised Land", Israel and Palestine, this narrative provides unique insight into plans — attempted and not yet articulated — to resolve the conflict between two peoples or nations with deep connections to the land, but who are not living there in peace because they are haunted by a history fashioned out by foreign powers that did not share their interest.

The author brings to the attention of the reader the distant and transformative events that affect the Israeli-Palestinian conflict today, and he builds the platform on which authentic peace and reconciliation can be built between these two peoples with claims to the same territory that they would hardly ever give up.

"UNBROKEN LINK I: The Common Origin and Development of Jews, and Southwestern Levantine Arabs in the Holy Land" stands out as a vivid portrayal of the history of the land and the peoples of that time. It helps us understand the events that took place in the region during the last century-and-a-half, and provides the pathway for us to move beyond the current impasse and build a future for the "Holy Land", the Near East and the rest of the world influenced by the Palestinian/Arab-Israeli Conflict.
