Summary: Illustrated Dictionary and Concordance
Review: Wow. If you're looking to understand names and places and theme of the Bible, this book covers it all. I couldn't really find anything that's in the Bible that's not in this book. It can help a serious scholar or the casual interest (like me). If there is more than one entry for a topic, this book covers them all. It is richly illustrated and well written. The only problemn is it weighs so much it's difficult to carry. You'll need to put it on a table because if you bring it to bed to read, you'll knock the wind out of yourself.

Obviously it's meant as a coffee table book, but church libraries in particular should consider adding this volume to their collections. It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny.
