This is a comprehensive yet short book in which all sixty-six books of the Bible are covered, reflecting meditatively on each book's first verse. It is this writer's hope that more and more Christians and spiritually-minded people who are open to the Bible will indeed read the whole Bible for themselves, without relying on paraphrases or summarized knowledge. I believe that a personal and cover-to-cover reading of God's word will be an immense blessing to those who endeavor to accomplish it. Hopefully this short volume will be an encouragement to that end.

P. D. Gray is the head of English at a school in the United Kingdom. He is the author of two books, Departures and Solatulip, and gives Bible talks to teens at his local church. He sees the Bible as a book for all, as well as a vital antidote to the rampant materialism of the modern age, an age in which we seem to make so little time for the eternal things of God.
