Where God Was Born:A Daring Adventure Through the Bible's Greatest Stories
 
Continuing the gripping journey he began with Walking the Bible, Bruce Feiler travels 10,000 miles through the heart of the Middle East—from the Garden of Eden to the rivers of Babylon—uncovering the little-known origins of Western religion. Combining the excitement of an adventure story and the insight of spiritual exploration, Where God Was Born offers a rare, universal vision of God that can inspire different faiths into a shared dialogue of hope.

Abraham: A Journey to the Heart of Three Faiths
 
Abraham: A Journey to the Heart of Three Faiths is a powerful, universal story, and the first-ever interfaith portrait of Abraham, the shared ancestor of Jews, Christians, and Muslims and the man all three religions call “God’s Friend.” Bruce Feiler embarks on a personal quest to better understand the man at the heart of the world's three monotheistic religions -- and today's deadliest conflicts. Traveling in war zones, climbing through caves and ancient shrines, and sitting down with the world's leading religious minds, Feiler attempts to answer the question that everyone is asking, "Can the religions get along?" He reveals that Abraham offers a rare vision of hope that will redefine what we think about our neighbors, our future, and ourselves.
 
Walking the Bible: A Journey by Land Through the Five Books of Moses
 
One part adventure story, one part archaeological detective work, one part spiritual exploration, Walking The Bible is Bruce Feiler’s most ambitious work to date. Traveling 10,000 miles through three continents, five countries, and four war zones Feiler retraces the Five Books of Moses. Visiting the actual sites of some of history’s most storied events, from the mountain where Noah’s ark landed, to the desert outpost in Turkey where Abraham first heard the words of God. Through his quest Feiler attempts to answer the question: Is the Bible just an abstraction, or is it a living, breathing entity?
 
Walking the Bible: A Photographic Journey
 
After his New York Times bestseller Walking the Bible was published, Feiler invited readers' opinions. The overwhelming response: Do you have any pictures? This book is the answer, with photos of the spot where Noah's ark landed, the lost cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and the place where Moses received the Ten Commandements.

Dreaming Out Loud: Garth Brooks, Wynonna Judd, Wade Hayes, And The Changing Face Of Nashville
 
In the 1990's, country music underwent a sweeping revolution. During that time Bruce Feiler was granted unprecedented access to witness the private moments of that revolution and to chronicle the genre's biggest stars as they changed the face of American music. Part social history, part backstage pass, Dreaming Out Loud presents the most comprehensive portraits yet painted of Garth Brooks, Wynonna Judd, and the rest of country music’s biggest stars.
 
Under the Big Top: A Season with the Circus
 
For 200 years Americans have cultivated a love affair with the circus. In Under The Big Top, Feiler tells of his year-long adventure performing as a clown in the Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros. Circus, the largest tented circus in the world. The first outsider to penetrate this sheltered community, his colorful account of that adventure, is an exotic, magical, troubling, unforgettable, and unique look at America from the back lot of a circus.
 
Looking for Class: Seeking Wisdom and Romance at Oxford and Cambridge
 
Looking For Class is Bruce Feiler’s hilarious and enlightening account of his year as a graduate student at Oxford and Cambridge. While there, Feiler shows us Oxbridge from all angles - the garden parties and formal balls, high-minded dormitory debates and late-night drinking Olympics, stuffy tutorials and weeklong exams. Along the way, he matches wits with the quickest tongue in the school during an "English-style" debate; rows in Cambridge’s most exclusive athletic ritual; and learns lessons in love from a Rhodes Scholar.
 
Learning to Bow: Inside the Heart of Japan
 
Since its publication, Learning To Bow has been regarded as one of the funniest, liveliest, and most insightful books about the clash of cultures between America and Japan. Recounting the year he spent teaching within the world’s most heralded school system Feiler demystifies contemporary Japanese life. His experience as the sole Westerner in a small town in Japan creates a revealing portrait of the life and attitude of the average Japanese citizen.
