Binding: Paperback
Description: In 1883, Moses Wilhelm Shapira arrived unannounced in London claiming to have discovered the world's oldest Bible scroll in a desert cave east of the Dead Sea. With his phenomenal find Shapira swiftly became world famous but just as quickly his scroll was discredited as a clever forgery. With the discovery of the eerily similar Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947, however investigators reopened the case wondering whether Shapira had in fact discovered the first Dead Sea Scroll seven decades before the rest. Here in a globetrotting narrative with all the suspense of a classic detective story award - winning journalist Chanan Tigay sets out to find the scrolls and determine Shapira's guilt or innocence for himself.
