Informative This book is a very informative read. At times it takes you back as if you were right there with the scribes. So many questions I have had for many years were answered within its pages. The content was in depth and ultimately a great read. A must have for the collection. Read more

This book is a real page-turner!! Very unusual for this much technical content. I kept wanting to turn the page to find out what was going to happen next in the birth of our English bible. I thought the book was extremely well written and extremely well researched. Every believer should be familiar with this book. Read more
