Jerusalem’s southern neighborhoods have long drawn English-speaking immigrants, with generations of olim experiencing the joys and uncertainties of aliyah and the immigrant experience.
Now two locals have each published books about the aliyah experience, from their personal vantage points.
“Angels & Tahina, 18 Lessons from Hiking the Israel Trail,” is Tzippi Moss’s take on aliyah, immigration and Israel, written about her two-month adventure in 2009, when Moss, her husband Allan Rabinowitz and their teenage son Ezra hiked the Israel National Trail, the 1,015-kilometer (630-mile) hiking path that crosses the entire country from north to south.

Angels & Tahina, a book about my family’s experience backpacking the entire Israel Trail, each of 18 chapters focused on a lesson our hike taught me.
