THE BIBLE: A HISTORY
By Stephen M. Miller & Robert V. Huber
Lion. 256 pages. £25.00.
ISBN 0 7459 5072 8

In the Lion tradition, 'The Bible: A History' is attractively produced with many illustrations on its A4-sized pages.

It does not give an account of the contents of the Bible. The aim is to focus on the Bible itself, how it came into existence, its influence, and how it has been spread around the world. Huber is a Roman Catholic Franciscan and Miller, judging by the content of the book, is a liberal Protestant.
