The author considers that the Bible is probably one of "the most often owned and least often read" books in existence and it is this contradiction which Kenneth McLeish atttempts to put right in his book. By re-telling in everyday English the main stories of the Old and New Testaments, he aims to make the Bible an approachable and interesting book for anyone to read. He takes the main stories from the Bible and tells them in order, aiming to make them simple and clear. Alternative versions, additional stories, maps and notes are also included, making this an introduction and companion to the Bible itself.
