      I'm not a great fan of the type of map that substitutes hatching for actual representation of what the mapper considers less important terrain, but the Harper atlas is of a well enough known area to get by with it. But I would have liked about two more maps or illustration of Jerusalem. A useful book given the price constraints.
    • 5/5
      A very useful reference, especially for Hebrew Bible studies but good for the New Testament as well.
