Summary: A must
Review: I found that this book is a must for the person looking for the perfect bible. Sheeley/Nash's book provided a simple, yet thorough, explanations of an exhausted list of bibles. This book answers many questions including: what bible is best for my personal study, which translation is better for my church, why are there different translation anyways? Before beginning a personal or corprate study of the bible this book is well worth the short time it takes to read.

Summary: This book is a must for anyone interested in the Bible
Review: This book is incredibly user-friendly and provides a valuable look at the history, making, and various translations of the Bible. As a seminary student, I can assure you that this book is very helpful in explaining the pros and cons of each translation of the Bible. I constantly refer to this work for a quick reference guide to translations. Biblical student or not, everyone should check this book out. I also recommend Sheeley and Nash's "Choosing A Bible: A Guide to Modern English Translations and Editions", which is also an excellent resource.

Summary: One of the best on the Subject
Review: This book is one of the best books on the subject
of English Bible versions. It is concise, well-written,
and pleasant to read. One gets the impression that
the authors are in love with the subject matter.
Their enthusiasm for the Bible in English is
contagious. There are many books on the English
Bible, there are none better than this one. It works
well as an introduction to various translations
and I could see this book being used along with
Comfort's, _Essential Guide to Bible Versions_ in
a classroom setting in the church or a school.Again, this is an excellent book and I highly
recommend it to all who are interested in the
study of the English Bible.
