Summary

Journey to the heart of Jerusalem, a city of profound significance, where history, faith, and culture intertwine. From its ancient origins to its modern-day struggles, Jerusalem's story is one of resilience, diversity, and enduring hope.

In this captivating book, we delve into the rich tapestry of Jerusalem's past, exploring its humble beginnings as a Canaanite settlement to its rise as a major center of religion and culture. We witness the city's transformation under various empires and kingdoms, its walls bearing witness to the rise and fall of civilizations, the clash of armies, and the birth of new faiths.

At the heart of Jerusalem's allure lies its sacred sites, revered by Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike. The Western Wall, a remnant of the Second Temple, draws Jewish pilgrims from around the world. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed to be the site of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection, is a place of deep reverence for Christians. And the Dome of the Rock, a magnificent Islamic shrine, stands as a symbol of Jerusalem's Islamic heritage.

Beyond its religious significance, Jerusalem is a vibrant and diverse city, home to people from all walks of life. Its bustling markets, narrow alleyways, and ancient architecture tell the story of a city that has absorbed and celebrated different cultures throughout its long history. From the Armenian Quarter to the Jewish Quarter to the Muslim Quarter, Jerusalem is a tapestry of traditions and beliefs.

However, Jerusalem's rich history and diverse population have also been the source of conflict and tension. The city has been a flashpoint for violence and political upheaval, often caught in the crossfire of regional and international rivalries. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict, in particular, has cast a long shadow over Jerusalem, with both sides claiming it as their rightful capital.

Despite the challenges it faces, Jerusalem remains a beacon of hope for people around the world. Its enduring legacy as a city of peace and coexistence serves as a reminder that even in the midst of conflict, there is always the possibility for reconciliation and understanding. Jerusalem's story is one of resilience, diversity, and the enduring human spirit.

    This program is ready by Audie Award–winning narrator Holter Graham.A bridge-burning, riotous memoir by a top PR operative in Washington who exposes the secrets of the $129-billion industry that controls so much of what we see and hear in the media—from a man who used to pull the strings, and who is now pulling back the curtain.After nearly two decades in the Washington PR business, Elwood wants to come clean, by exposing the dark underbelly of the very industry that’s made him so successful. The first step is revealing exactly what he’s been up to for the past twenty years—and it isn’t pretty. Elwood has worked for a murderer’s row of questionable clients, including Gaddafi, Assad, and the government of Qatar. In All the Worst Humans, Elwood unveils how the PR business works, and how the truth gets made, spun, and sold to the public—not shying away from the gritty details of his unlikely career.This is a piercing look into the corridors of money, power, politics, and control, all told in Elwood’s disarmingly funny and entertaining voice. He recounts a four-day Las Vegas bacchanal with a dictator’s son, plotting communications strategies against a terrorist organization in Western Africa, and helping to land a Middle Eastern dictator’s wife a glowing profile in Vogue on the same time the Arab Spring broke out. And he reveals all his slippery tricks for seducing journalists in order to create chaos and ultimately cover for politicians, dictators, and spies—the industry-secret tactics that led to his rise as a political PR pro. Along the way, Phil walks the halls of the Capitol, rides in armored cars through Abuja, and watches his client lose his annual income at the roulette table. But as he moved up the ranks, he felt worse and worse about the sleaziness of it all—until Elwood receives a shocking wake-up call from the FBI. This risky game nearly cost Elwood his life and his freedom. Seeing the light, Elwood decides to change his ways, and his clients, and to tell the full truth about who is the worst human.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
