In his new book, Bruce Feiler, the acclaimed author of Walking the Bible, travels to the Middle East to find the truth and the meaning behind the shadowy biblical figure of Abraham. He also explores how the three religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam have appropriated Abraham as part of their tradition - and how the old man of the Bible could once again become a unifying force for those bitterly divided faiths. - Who was Abraham? - Why is he of fundamental importance to Jews, Christians and Muslims? - Can the message of his story help reconcile the warring faiths?
