A tribute to the bookbinder's art, the
Wide Margin Reference Bible
makes an unparalleled gift for that special occasion in the life of a
ministry or congregation. Constructed from the finest materials and
carefully bound, this edition includes one-inch wide margins to permit
note taking, sixteen pages of full-color maps and thirty-two pages of
ruled paper. It is just the thing for celebrating years of service to a
congregation.

"This Oxford is simply the best available wide margin Bible in the King
James Version. The calfskin leather is thick and sturdy enough to
support the weight of the book, yet still flexible. The paper is the
best I know of among wide margin Bibles. It is thick, so there's no
bleedthrough from writing notes. It is also non-glare, so it's easy on
the eyes. The print is neither small nor large. The margins are quite
wide and continue around the entirety of the text. I really like the
fact that there are about 25 pages of lined paper bound in the back of
the Bible right after the maps. In addition, there are several blank
note pages right before the maps, so between the lined and unlined
pages, there is plenty of room to use for notes in the back of the
Bible. The only "negatives" about this Bible might be it's size (it is
relatively large and somewhat heavy, but still quite portable. No
larger, really, than a full-size study Bible), and also there is no
concordance (this is not a drawback to me, but might be to others. I'd
much rather have the thicker paper and the extra blank pages in the
back than a concordance). The Bible does have center-column references
and a nice selection of maps. The Binding is extremely well done by
today's standards. This is a Bible that's made to use and made to last"
