To start I'll say that I have not read the Bible, and maybe I never will.

This has to be one of the funniest books I have ever read, and is told in Spikes great way, which is so familiar to anyone who knows the Goons or Spikes recollections of his participation in WW2.

He lets fly on all aspect of the Bible, no holds barred. Apparently there was a lot of sex!

Reading this on public transport will have people staring at you as you laugh out loud with Spike's description of people and events.

Buy it if you love to laugh!

I am a long time American Milligan fan. I had to give up my book collection of his memoirs, poetry and Goon scripts when I had to suddenly move to assist my aging parents and I couldn't afford to take them with me. Recently I needed a Spike fix. I found this book was available used/cheap and so I took the gamble. I couldn't have been more pleased! I am a non-practicing Jew, so the Bible is not something I have read. This is the way to do it! I admit there are many British references I don't get, but that's a small price to pay for a hearty laugh!! I miss you Spike and hope Heaven is a better place having you there!

very nice book, If I didnt read the real, I can trust and belive to this one :)))
