<p>A Map and a Lens Jordan is a photographic pursuit of Jordan's beauty and history. The book captures an unprecedented collection of cultural and religious sites in Jordan, which Bashar Tabbah spent five years exploring. The goal throughout that time was to explore and artistically document Jordan's most captivating and overlooked treasures in order to share them with the world. The result, a large 364 page Bi-lingual book that contains over 230 full colour images from 130 different locations around Jordan. Divided chronologically over 7 chapters the book not only features pictures but also 16 hand illustrated maps, and over thirty thousand words in regional and site history as well as an additional five thousand words in personal anecdotes and information on the project. The text, co-written with Jane Taylor (author of Petra and the Lost Kingdom of the Nabataeans) covers over ten thousand years of history and is meticulously researched and proofread by over 10 separate historians and archaeologists. The text has also been meticulously translated by linguistic experts. Surpassing all, this book will be the definitive visual guide on Jordan and its history.</p>
