excellent documentation and sources, footnotes exceptional. A serious scholar, but he could not keep his Christian slant from his interputations, it shows in spots. He also used !!! several times, Very unacceptable for a scholarly work. though they could have been added by editiors. He could have stressed more heavily that the ARK was not a ship or boat, rather a flatbottom, box or barge. Thus down playing the several reports of sighting a prow or deepwater hull.This persistent Christian representation of a huge sea-going vessels aptly illustrates the problems cause by lack of concern of basic accuracy.(not on the author's part however) BUT WORTH READING.
