Book Reviews of The Bible (Penguin Classics)
Book Review: Flawed
Summary: 2 Stars
OK, if you don't know and love the original text of the King James' version. Norton has taken it upon himself to 'improve' the text by selectively updating the grammar. He says that he has removed all of the unnecessary alterations of previous revisions . . . maybe, but he has added many more of his own - there is scarcely a page on which there is not some grammatical modernisation which he has made.
