Phoenicians book

Now, for the first time, read the complete story of these remarkable people and the ancient Mediterranean.

The Phoenicians arose on the shores of Lebanon, became masters of rich sea trade, brought us the alphabet, purple cloth, Carthage and Hannibal. That much everyone knows. But there was much more to their story.  

They were intimately involved with the Greeks, Romans and Egyptians in many of the epic events of the ancient Mediterranean. Through their eyes we now learn much more about those great events.  And see echoes of these events in Lebanon today.  Deeply researched, this book used 113 sources, yet it is freshened with many maps and pictures.  

Author Sanford Holst is widely regarded as one of the world's leading experts on the Phoenician people. Antoine Khoury Harb is a highly respected professor of history and archaeology in Lebanon.
