Legacy of the King James Bible

Leland Ryken’s book, The Legacy of the King James Bible: Celebrating 400 Years of the Most Influential English Translation is a wonderful treatment of the King James Version of the Bible from a historical and literary standpoint.  I have just recently posted a book review of this work.  Ryken is a friend of the KJV.  The KJV is the most published book in the history of the world.  It has a place of prominence among English Bible translations and is unsurpassed in its literary beauty.  If you have neglected this English translation of the Bible, perhaps this is the time to take a closer look at the KJV.  If Ryken impresses you with its beauty and quality, maybe you will read it with new admiration too!
