SUMMARY
"Nicolson vividly evokes many aspects of Jacobean England....The heart of the book, however, is its account of the lives of some of the Translators and of their working practices. [He] is alert to ways in which individuals may have brought particular gifts or experiences to the collaborative work....[His] comments on stylistic details, his comparisons of the same passage in different versions, are unusually sensitive....Adam Nicolson has deepened my understanding of the greatest work of English prose, for which I am grateful.Nicolson, Adam is the author of 'God's Secretaries The Making of the King James Bible' with ISBN 9780060185169 and ISBN 0060185163.
