The Bible As History by Werner Keller, has anyone heard of this book?

I'm interested in the book but It's last publish date is 1980 and I'm afraid it's a bit out of date. Furthermore the table of contents suggests that the shroud of Turin, which has since been proved to be a fake, might be authentic. Can anyone suggest a book of similar topic that is more contemporary?

RE: The Bible As History by Werner Keller, has anyone heard of this book?

I own two hard-cover copies of this fascinating book and found it to be extremely useful in my own private study of the book of Genesis.

The book can be easily found online at monster suppliers like Amazon dot com

RE: It's last publish date is 1980

My copies are dated 1995 by Barnes & Noble Books. At present, Amazon is offering two copies dated 2008.

RE: the table of contents suggests that the shroud of Turin, which has since been proved to be a fake, might be authentic.

The table of contents in my copies questions the shrouds authenticity; and the chapter itself leaves no doubt that it is impossible to prove the shroud was used to bury Christ.

Even if you don't care to read Mr. Keller's book at this time, I still urge you to get a copy anyway and keep it in your collection of references as the day may come when you (or perhaps your posterity) will wish you'd gotten it when you had the chance.

Thanks for the info. I am interested in reading the book. I just posted here to get a bit more info on it before I made the financial investment of purchasing it. I didn't see a recent copy of it on Amazon, but I'll look again.

Thanks for the link, it was helpful. I still don't know how in my first try I managed to type in the title and not get a more recent edition of the book. Amazon can be a bit strange at times.
