1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading title, April 3, 2003

By 

Alfretha "Alfretha" (Colorado, United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: NRSV Large Print Bible (Hardcover)

Although titled "large" print bible, this is anything but. Even the publisher's specifications say it is "regular" print. When I called the publisher, they said that the print was 11 pt, and they didn't know the font.

Now, to me, 11 pt type is definitely not large. I wouldn't even use that size to write a letter. It is small, cramped, and difficult to read. So if you are looking for a "large" print bible, definitely DON'T get this one.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a disappointment, February 27, 2004

By 

Alan Olesky (Brielle, NJ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: NRSV Large Print Bible (Hardcover)

Carpe Diem! I ordered a bunch of these for those in our church whose sight isn't what it used to be. Perhaps in bright sunshine with a magnifier, they could see the size of the type in this book. Save your money! This is DEFINITELY NOT large print.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Thin Bible for Preaching, February 21, 2006

This review is from: NRSV Large Print Bible (Bonded Leather)

Yes, the title, "Large Print" is misleading. HOWEVER, this is a very thin bible and is great for the pulpit. Most NRSV's I have found are 2+ inches thick or are of a 'gift bible' quality. This one is not as cumbersome as the thicker texts nor as cheap. There are also some textual notes included in this Bible which others may lack (e.g, the slightly thicker Oxford, black leather at 1.4 inches). If you are looking for a good pulpit Bible, I'd recommend this one.
