Masada: The Last Fortress

From the Back Cover:

"In the year 72 C.E., after a four-year war between Rome and Judea, only one fortress remains to be taken: Masada, high above the Dead Sea in what is now Israel. In this eloquent historical novel we meet 17-year-old Simon ben Eleazar, son of the Jewish leader of the Zealots, who records the Roman legion's relentless siege and the moving story of the Jews' last stand on Masada."
