The book includes a list of over 55 old English bibles with excerpts from each, as well as fascinating history, a look at one of the first English bibles to omit the name Holy Ghost completely, quotes from 19th-century translators who excluded the name from their bibles, insight from 16th and 17th-century writers, and more.
