I am so glad that I bought this book! The author is well known for his Biblical knowledge and it has enriched my Bible Study immensely.
Full of maps, charts, statistics and so on; this is something that is perfect for new believers as well as those with an advanced knowledge of Scripture.
All opinions are my own.

Used this during my year long devotions. Read before entering into a new book of the Bible, helped with my understanding of each book.
