A Great Book!

This is one of the finest books on Biblical topics. It has to rate at the top along with other classical works of history, Biblical studies, and archaeology. This book exudes excitement and passion. It is a work that is extremely well researched, easy to read, and uniquely written in that it is a book for the scholar or the schoolboy, i.e., it is for everyone. To make it readable and understandable to a wide and general audience is quite a talent! The book covers a wide gambit of literary, historical, archaeological, and scientific material that is very well organized. What makes this work exceptional is that the author presents the material in such a way that it "grabs" you and keeps your interest--it makes you want more! An amazing feature of this book is that as you read the work it is as if the author is right there with you personally teaching you the material. The author does not waste time with unnecessary triva, but gets right to the point and tells it like it is. It would be great for families to read together--making it a wonderful addition to anyone's library collection. It is also a great gift item. After some personal research, it was discovered that the author's six degrees include an M.Lett (Masters of Letters) from The University of Birmingham, England, with doctoral work at Oxford University, England. His PhD is from The University of Wales in the United Kingdom, which is a sister university of Oxford, Cambridge, etc.--i.e., from the famous British University system. A VERY impressive academic background! This author IS quite the scholar. Hopefully, Adams Media or some other publishing company will continue to publish this author's works! We are ready for more!
