'My purpose and effort in writing this 'holy history' was always to
persuade the reader to feel - to experience, in fact and in spirit -
this, the greatest of stories.' This innovative, dramatic and highly
readable retelling of the Bible - from the Creation to the Acts of the
Apostles - in the style of an epic novel has sold 1.5 million copies
worldwide. This blockbuster is now being reissued with a striking new
cover for the 21st century.
