Customer Reviews

Apart from the Bible, this is the most treasured book I own!

This oversized "coffeetable" book is marvelously and colorfully filled with unusual, eye-catching photographs. Areas I thought I had seen from every imaginable angle were caught with wonderful flair and style. Along with many different types of pictures (aerials, panoramics, sketches, antiquities) was historical information from biblical and non-biblical sources. Very helpful timelines were strategically interspersed throughout. Overall -- magnificent!
