On 2/12 Alyssa Liljequist wrote: It's not often you come across a book/magazine/Bible all in one but that is what Revolve 2010 is. It's a New Testament that looks like a magazine but is thick like a book. It's also not often that I come across a product to review that looks neat and I end up having more negative things ...

Nelson's Illustrated Guide to Religions
