Nelson Glueck by Jonathan Brown
Describes the many achievements of this extraordinary man whose life straddled two distinct Jewish worlds: he excavated remains of the ancient Nabataeans in Transjordan, described a biblical copper-mining industry at the shore of the Red Sea, and showed how the Negev could support a large population if proper irrigation techniques were used.
