Aleppo : The Rise and Fall of Syria's Great Merchant City Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A poignant testament to the city shattered by Syria's civil war. Aleppo lies in ruins, a casualty of Syria's brutal civil war.

Its streets are cloaked in darkness, its population scattered, its memories ravaged.

But this was once a vibrant world city, where Muslims, Christians and Jews lived and traded together in peace.

Few places are as ancient and diverse. At the crossroads of global trade, Aleppo drew merchants from Venice, Isfahan and Agra to the largest souq in the Middle East and it was from here that some of the world's most enduring food, music and culture sprang.
