1965 hardcover edition of James A. Michener’s The Source, published by Random House, with original dust jacket. Michener’s sweeping historical novel uses an archaeological dig at a fictional site in Israel to tell the story of the region and the Jewish people across thousands of years, from ancient societies through the creation of modern Israel. Includes maps and diagrams by Jean-Paul Tremblay. The dust jacket shows substantial edge wear, chipping and tears, as pictured; the book itself appears solid.
