Silva's books are always well-researched, and if you've read The Fallen Angel or plan to read it, keep these links containing rare pictures of subterranean Jerusalem close by. On this page is a sampling of the pictures.

Thank you for sharing these amazing photos. They bring back the pages of Fallen Angel so vividly. You not only write but also teach and I am fortunate that I am one of your readers. You are the reason my husband I traveled to Israel and we want to go back. Keep writing! Daniel.
