Publisher's Synopsis

Moon of Israel is a historical novel written by H. Rider Haggard in 1918. The novel is set in ancient Egypt during the time of the Exodus and tells the story of a young Egyptian slave girl named Merapi. She falls in love with a Hebrew prince named Ana, who is also a slave. Merapi helps Ana and his people escape from Egypt and the wrath of Pharaoh by leading them through the desert to the Promised Land. Along the way, they face many challenges and obstacles, including the pursuit of Pharaoh's army and the dangers of the desert. The novel is a romantic tale of love and adventure, set against the backdrop of one of the most significant events in Jewish history. It is a gripping and engaging read that offers a unique perspective on the Exodus story.""Life! Blood!
