Résumé

On January 25, 2011, the world was shocked when Egyptian protestors stormed into Cairo's Tahrir Square, demanding the overthrow of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak. Among their many grievances, one of the primary issues that the protestors demanded was free elections and freedom of speech. But even after a partial resolution, another uprising took place in Tripoli against the dictatorial rule of Muammar Gaddafi.
Now, a good portion of the Middle East and North Africa is aflame with protests and a spirit of reform. Who are the people leading this revolt, and what does it say about the relationship between Islam and democracy? What is the future of Islam in a growing secular society? How does the cry for freedom from these young revolutionaries compare to our own nation's call for liberty in the past? Amidst these cries for freedom, New York Times bestselling author Bruce Feiler heard the echoes of the oldest stories ever told.
Now, for the first time in years, Feiler returns to the Middle East to explore the ancient sources of these conflicts. Weaving together the history of three seminal Scriptural stories-The Garden of Eden, Abraham, and Moses-Generation Freedom shows students that sometimes the best way to understand the present is to turn back to the past.
