It was written in the 1500's by a Bishop James Ussher. It is generally considered the basis for the 4004 b.C. creation date. He took Gods word and put it in historical context. He took biblical events and historical events and wrote a history book that chronologically discusses both historical and Biblical events; putting them on a time scale. For example, you can see what was happening in the rest of the world when the Jewish people left Egypt for the promised land.
It is extremely fascinating to me. I am still reading it and have only finished about 1/3'rd of it.
It had not been printed for several hundred years until AIG (Answers In Geneses) reprinted it (with updated English - the English of the 1500's is nearly unreadable today). They have two bindings - the leather one is very expensive, but the regular hardback is around $60.00 or so.

Perhaps I will read it! I usually stick to fiction, but who knows?

I wish to clear something up that may be confusing, which is my fault. I am a firm believer in evolution. On earlier posts I was simply joshing some of the regular posters on these threads - spicing things up if you will. If I have misled you, forgive me.

Sounds kewl. I'll wait until it's in paperback.
