Author Brandon Wilson and his 68-year old French friend set off in the footsteps of history on an inspiring 2620-mile (4217-km.) trekking pilgrimage for peace to Jerusalem across two continents and eleven countries. Join them as they walk an ancient trail followed by Knights Templar, Romans, pilgrims, and traders on their way from France to Israel

A Journey With Unique Challenges

This two-continent trek takes them from the canals, rivers and forests of Europe to the bleak high deserts and parched, rugged countryside of the Middle East. Temperatures soar from near-freezing to nearly 100 degrees. Wild dogs roam the steppes, Israel and Lebanon exchange bombs, while the potential threat from terrorism and deadly viruses make them question their mission.

A Tale About Overcoming Physical & Mental Obstacles

On this five-month marathon, trekking 30-58 kms. every day is a supreme test of the human spirit; of continuing even on those days when their bodies say “No more!”

A Quest for Personal and Global Peace

The peace walkers spread a message of hope and tolerance as they meet with local media and convince others that peace and negotiations are better options to never-ending wars.

A Daily Encounter with Small Miracles

All along the way “angels” help them in their times of need and reassure them that human kindness is still very much alive in the world today.

Join them on an historic walk to remember. This book comes complete with helpful stages, maps and black & white photos.

A fascinating testimony of faith and gumption that inspired two men to take seven million steps for peace. A must read…
