From the back cover:
This book fills the need for a short yet substantial history of the Ancient Near East in the English language. It takes account of the rapidly increasing body of archaeological information casting light on the ancient past.
This book serves excellently as a textbook of the Ancient Near East, the center in which lived God's people of old, and in which the Bible was written. It will help the student of the Bible to understand the history of Israel. Many of the historical and geographical references of Scripture will become clear in the light of the history of the Ancient Near East. This also makes this a valuable reference book for the minister and Bible student's library.
This book earned for the author a trip to the Holy Land, which was the award to the winner in the Baker Book House Twenty-fifth Anniversary Manuscript Contest.
