Recommended Posts

Money of the Bible, 3rd Edition by Kenneth Bressett. Atlanta: Whitman Publishing LLC. 120 pages. 10 x 12 inches. Hardcover with dustjacket. $29.95.

 

This large format "coffee table" book (25.4 x 27.9 cm) is yet another lavishly illustrated, inexpensive, and authoritative publication from Whitman, written by an expert. While the narrative is not as detailed as the examinations by David Hendin (Guide to Biblical Coins, 4th ed., New York: Amphora, 2001), the stories are lively and compelling. Coins and other artifacts give historical context to the Old and New Testaments. This book also provides other illustrations, as well, to underscore or highlight the facts.

 

 

From jewelry and the first coins to modern tourist trinkets with ancient-looking symbols, knowledgeable collectors and novices will find a treasury of information surrounded by colorful art from across the millennia.
