"Mini" King James Bible Facsimile

Zondervan, in conjunction with the Bible Museum in Goodyear, Arizona has produced a facsimile of the Holy Bible published in 1611. I called it a "mini" facsimile since it is only 8.1 x 5.7 x 3 inches. Thanks to a tip - I picked one up at Wal-Mart for just $4.99. It is an actual photographic facsimile of the original though they made the decision to leave out the apocryphal books (these were included in the original 1611 Bible). It is also available at Amazon.com though it is more expensive there. It is readable, though it wouldn't be my recommendation for those that want to study the original 1611. But, for the price, it is a wonderful reminder of the 400 years of the Authorised Bible.
