Book review: Jerusalem unbound: geography, history and the future of the holy city by Michael Dumper

Michael Dumper aims to plot a history of Jerusalem that examines how Christians, Jews and Muslims have contributed to the sense of borders within the city. Gary Wilson finds that the approach adopted is highly original and the book offers some genuine food for thought. The style of writing adopted avoids unnecessary jargon and phrasing, making this a very accessible text that can be read and enjoyed by scholars.
