A wealth of information from a critical but appreciative perspective

First, the other reviewer decided to pan the book based on the book using the terms BCE/CE rather than BC/AD in order to be more accessible in places to readers who are not Christian. Let that narrow-mindedness speak for the review.

The book is a veritable wealth of information on Scripture and Christian history from a decidedly Catholic perspective. Each chapter is written by a national scholar in the field, with an eye to material being useful for entry level college students. Many of the chapters are engaging, replete with maps and art, and all are information rich. Anyone wanting a good introduction to the story of the God's interaction with the world from a Catholic Christian perspective will appreciate this book. I've taught with it many times and it has always been well-appreciated.
