Synopsis An account of Project Falcon, which attempted to locate the real Mount Sinai. In the 1980s, several American explorers and adventurers became convinced that the Mount Sinai referred to in the Bible was actually in Saudi Arabia rather than the Sinai peninsula, and they set up the project to locate the exact site. "New York Times" journalist Blum describes how Project Falcon became embroiled in controversy--political, scientific, and financial--from the start, as it attempted to locate not only the mount itself, but the "gold of exodus" supposedly buried there.
