1) Clark, W. Joseph. The Holy Land: A Guide. Huntington, Indiana: Our Sunday Visitor Publishing Division Our Sunday Visitor, Inc., 1986.
“The author of this delightful book, Bill Clark, is an American who has lived in Israel for years and is a veteran journalist. Mr. Clark brings a unique perspective to his descriptions in The Holy Land. As a biologist and a naturalist, he is open to the environment of the Holy Land, and is able to create a feeling of “presence” for the reader, which effects an adventure that is far more exciting than a mere listing of the various baroque shrines or exotic sites.”
