Overview

This profusely illustrated atlas, intended for young readers, tells the full story of the Bible from Genesis to Acts. The 96 maps that illustrate such events as the wanderings of the Patriarchs and the journeys of St. Paul are enhanced by a text written by the renowned British biblical scholar, F. F. Bruce. The work is not only a useful reference for finding places mentioned in the Bible, but also a marvelously well-written summary of the key events of biblical history.
