Summary: Beautiful workmanship
Review: This is a magnificent volume. It is heavy, very well produced, easy to read, and worth the expense if the KJV is what you want. Having the extensive introduction as well as the apocrapha (both original to the translation) is a joy.

Summary: This is THE Book to read.
Review: Yes indeed. The Bible is the Book of books. Everyone should have a copy and read it. And it's the kind of book you can and SHOULD go back to frequently ... "Yea" daily. If the antiquated language of the King James Version leaves you scratching thy head pick up the New American Standard Version.Even if you're not a "believer" you should be familiar with the Bible and the accounts therein. Remember in the film "Erin Brochovich" Julie Roberts referred to David and What's His Name? If she had a working knowledge of the Bible the name "Goliath" would've rolled right off of her tongue. Then there is "Daniel in the lion's den", "the walls of Jericho", Jonah, the parting of the Red Sea -- all kinds of references you hear in normal conversation. And let's not forget "doubting Thomas", Judas' betrayal, the loaves and the fishes. If nothing else, a knowledge of the Bible will make revival presentations of "Godspell" and "Jesus Christ Superstar" more meaningful. Anyway, I highly recommend buying a copy of the Bible and reading it -- even meditating on it daily. But maybe not this huge lectern version. Amazon has many other choices. May the Author of the Book bless you big time. Angelo from Connecticut
