A brand new edition of the renowned New American Standard Bible, reflecting the best traditions of Cambridge Bible typography and production values. Cambridge's original Pitt Minion Bibles were notable for their use of a compact typeface designed for Cambridge University Press in the heyday of hot-metal composition. They have been a feature of the Cambridge list for over half a century. The NASB Pitt Minion Reference Edition now follows in this historic tradition, using a stylish modern digital typeface which like its predecessor combines utility and elegance. It uses the Lexicon typeface, carefully chosen for its economical use of space. This is the font used for dictionaries and encyclopaedias because it accommodates a lot of characters in a small space. The result is a classic Bible for the twenty first century produced in a remarkably compact yet readable form. Cambridge's NASB Pitt Minion Bibles feature red-letter text for the words of Christ and full cross-references. Printed on India paper, the gilt-edged pages are sewn for maximum resilience and durability. This Bible has a ribbon to keep the place and a presentation page. Extra study features include a concordance and 16 pages of maps. This Bible is bound in sturdy burgundy French Morocco leather.

A true classic,
By
This review is from: NASB Pitt Minion Reference Burgundy French Morocco NS183RC (Leather Bound)
My mother always believed that a fine Bible was the most personal gift you could give someone. Receiving a Cambridge Bible from my parents was a mark of their acknowledgment of who you were becoming in Christ. Today, I still consider my Cambridge, 'my' Bible. It's fine leather, paper and binding have weathered my late adolescence, college years and young adult life in very good condition, and most of the wear it bears is the fault of the bearer, not the manufacturer. On our wedding day, my husband gave me a new Cambridge, this time a NASB, with my new name engraved on it. I treasure this volume as well, and I expect a lifetime of use from it.
In short, if you are looking for a Bible that will age gracefully and meaningfully, get a Cambridge. If you want a Bible to keep in your camper, get it from another manufacturer. Like my father always says, you get what you pay for. -sarah-

This review is from: NASB Pitt Minion Reference Burgundy French Morocco NS183RC (Leather Bound)
I finally take my Bible everywhere I go. This is a perfect fit Bible. The font size is very easy to read and it lays perfectly flat. Good quality leather, not as soft as calfskin but it will soften up nice over time. Cambridge knows how to make em! Oh and you can't go wrong with Cambridge's Lifetime Warranty.
