4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Reference, February 27, 2008

By	William A. Snodgrass Jr. "Bill Snodgrass" (Tennessee) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am using this book in a seminary course, and I find the content to be very useful in placing the prophetic books into context. I will be keeping this book on my shelf as a reference and turning to it to locate the prophetic books in history etc. I am very happy with this book!
