Very nice, lots of fun

I know there is a tendency to look down one's nose at Reader's Digest products, but this book is a very nice addition to anyone's library, if you can find a used copy floating around. The best feature is the full color maps and photo's - easily some of the best I have ever seen. The four full page maps on pp 44-47 (and reproduced in part throughout the text as smaller detail maps) are particularly impressive and alive with color, although the scale is about 8 miles to the inch, so alot of detail is lost. The text is well written and, as far as I can tell, reasonably accurate, although the lack of sources (other than Biblical citations) is a little annoying.

Clearly presented and practical guide to the scriptures

A valuable addendum to general reference. Excellently presented, as with most Readers Digest products. The ideal companion book to this is the wonderful "THE Autobiography of Jesus of Nazareth and the Missing Years" by Richard G. Patton. Readers digest shows you where the Master walked, Patton shows you exactly who left the footprints!
