Although a work of fiction, 1948 reveals how the countdown to the Biblically predicted end times battle of Armageddon can be traced back to 1948. The book takes the reader through much known evidence to make the case. He does this primarily through the interactions and travels of his five main characters who know each from Boston, yet spend time exploring Israel together. These characters represent varying perspectives of skeptic and believer, Jew and Christian. 1948 is interesting and entertaining, because it offers a plethora of ideas, questions and information for consideration. In 1948, the believer will find a general guide for following present and future world events, while the skeptic will find 1948 a source to help with clarification and understanding of the issues involved.
