Synopsis
From the Holy Mountain is a 1997 historical travel book by William Dalrymple. Dalrymple's third book From the Holy Mountain: A Journey in the Shadow of Byzantium (1997) saw him trace the ties of Eastern Orthodox congregations scattered in the Middle East to their ancient origins; it also deals with the question of how they have fared over centuries of Islamic rule and the complex relationship of Islam and Christianity in the Middle East.
