Walking the Bible A Journey By Land Through The Five Books of Moses by Bruce Feiler is one part adventure story, one part archaeological detective work, one part spiritual exploration.  It vividly recounts an inspiring personal odyssey - by foot, jeep, rowboat, and camel - through the greatest stories ever told.

Feeling a desire to reconnect to the Bible, award winning author Bruce Feiler set out on a perilous, ten-thousand-mile journey, retracing the Five Books of Moses through the desert.  Traveling through three continents, five countries, and four war zones, Feiler is the first person to complete such a historic expedition.  He crosses the Red Sea, climbs Mount Sinai, and interviews bedouin and pilgrims alike, as he attempts to answer the question: Is the Bible just an abstraction or is it a living, breathing entity?

This book also has a companion DVD.  The DVD contains 3 one hour episodes aired by PBS highlighting 3 different segments of the book: Episode 1, Go Forth Form Creation to Abraham, Episode 2, A Coat of Many Colors: The Israelites in Egypt, Episode 3: Toward the Promised Land: Forty Years in the Desert.   The stories in the first five books of the Bible, also known as the Torah, come alive as Feiler searches across three continents for the stories and heroes shared by Christians and Jews.  Dramatic scripture readings interspersed throughout bring you closer to these Biblical settings.
