A man with a deep love for his country, he immediately set about recording eye-witness accounts of terrible events as they unfolded, as well as stories and anecdotes passed down from one generation to the next. Drawing upon historical documents and old folkloric tales of wrestling bears, sword sparring, and dancing goats, these stories convey not only the horrors of war, but also the rich social and religious diversity of a country whose legacy of generosity, courage and tolerance is rapidly being eroded by a climate of greed. \u003ci\u003eStories and Scenes\u003c\/i\u003e is a moving testament to the pride and heritage of this 'small beautiful country'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mahmoud Khalil Saab\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0863565700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780863565700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Saqi Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.70w x 1.21d","brand":"Mahmoud Khalil Saab","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43926674473215,"sku":"9780863565700","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b02f6635-94b2-4c39-ba4a-ec5b0ab6e2b8.jpg?v=1681084390","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stories-and-scenes-from-mount-mahmoud-khalil-saab-9780863565700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
