The Road from Damascus: An American traveling alone meets smugglers, mystics, revolutionaries, Bedouins, wise men, secret police - and other ordinary Syrians
Scott C. Davis
CUNE Press, 2003, paperback, 388 pp.
Based on two trips; ten weeks in 1987 and three weeks in 2001; The Road from Damascus is a fast-paced, insightful look at Syria and her people. Davis traveled widely: Damascus, the coast, Masyaf (home of the Assassins), Aleppo and the steppes of al-Jazeera. His return trip - a chapter unto itself - allows him to catch up with friends made a decade earlier and to chronicle the changes in the country. A fine introduction to a much-maligned nation and to otherwise unknown ordinary Syrians.
