Stunning!

This is a must-have for anyone who likes to read the Scriptures for private devotion. This is a nice Bible to bring with you or while traveling, I have found. I recently brought this Bible with me on a getaway I had this weekend, and it fit in my bag perfectly. The print is also at a good size for reading as well. I believe this is the perfect Bible for all Catholics.
