... for the place where you are standing is holy ground.

It is 1932, and fifteen-year-old Meir Cohen arrives in the Promised Land -- Eretz Israel -- with a dream of establishing an agricultural community in the heart of the Hebrew homeland, just as the rising tides of Nazi Germany threaten to devour Europe. When he meets the young and equally enthusiastic Eitan Wallach, the two develop a kinship they hope will one day send them on the path of purpose, adventure, and brotherhood they have always dreamed of. But their future in the holy land holds more than the promise of the sweat of your brow, and the pair soon discovers that every dream has its own price.

Spanning over thirty years of struggle, from the wheat fields overlooking the Sea of Galilee to the bustling spice-scented streets of Jerusalem, The Ground We Stand Upon is an enticing and unforgettable journey through a bygone era of Jewish pioneers. By turns bold, passionate, and complex, The Ground We Stand Upon examines the vexing but inherent clash between friendship, love, duty, doubt, the desire to build something so utopic it will last forever, and what is left when your dreams fall apart.
