Hands down the most exciting of the books presented this year. The Gospels and Acts of the Apostles are presented in a way that literally illuminates each page with the inherent dignity and grace of the scripture. This book is not only ornate in a way the average Bible couldn’t. It is worth the price and will be cherished forever in a persona library or a house of worship.The Catholic Press Association
