This book captured my attention immediately: I love maps, history, photography, and the Bible, and this book has ALL of those things in one place!

The Essential Atlas of the Bible is a concise, easy to navigate atlas for all types of study – whether you’ll be traveling to the Middle East and want to get to know the history of the area, or whether you want to learn about the places of the Bible, this book is perfect for you.

It is in full color and offers a great deal of history on every page. The photography gives you a glimpse of what the areas look like today and helps you to imagine what it would have been like to have been there thousands of years ago. If you love maps, you’ll really love the detail and context that this book provides. It’s easy to read and it is organized into chapters that help make the research process even easier.

This is a book I would highly recommend for every household, as I could see children really loving it as well! After all, we can never learn too much about the places of the Bible.

I received a free copy of this book from BookLook Bloggers in exchange for my honest review.
