The Sarajevo Haggadah, an illuminated Hebrew manuscript, was saved during the Bosnian conflict by a Muslim librarian at the National Museum and placed in a bank vault. Hanna Heath, an Australian rare book specialist, is given the opportunity to inspect and conserve this beautiful book which dates back to 15th Century Spain. As she inspects it, she finds evidence that suggests the history of the Haggadah as it changes hands traveling from Spain to Sarajevo.

I've tried my hardest finishing this book, but I just couldn't. It's a complex concept to understand and a very dense book.

I wouldn't recommend this book, but feel free (it might just be me having a hard time with this book.)
