I wanted a bible that would last me for a lifetime and this is it! Really amazing quality.
Great Cambridge Quality

The Cambridge NASB Pitt Minion Bible in black goatskin leather is a treasure for any person who is fond of the great old Cambridge traditon. Let's start with the cover. This Bible is bound in genuine goatskin leather. There isn't a better leather out there for the price than goatskin. It is soft and thick, tough and yet very pliable. This Bible just feels great in your hands. When you hold it open in your hands you feel like you are holding a real Bible made in the old tradition. And it smells great!
The binding is sewn and opens flat, which is really outstanding if you like to study at a desk or table. The page edges are art gilt, red under gold, a process that is more expensive for Bible makers but reflects a much higher quality Bible.
The paper is nice. Smooth, opaque, strong, and non-glare, so it doesn't tire the eyes. The print is quite small but readable if you have decent eyesight. This is a reference Bible with center column references and a concordance. This is remarkable for such a small Bible.
If you appreciate traditional Cambridge quality, you will love this Bible. Designed to last a lifetime and pass down to your children or grandchildren, this Bible is worth every penny you spend.

Excellent quality book

This goatskin covered Pitt Minion Bible is excellent in quality and should withstand years of daily use. It is light, compact, and has a fantastic feel about it. Of all the books I own, it is my second favorite, right behind my 20 year old worn R. L. Allan 26 KJV.
It is also very squarely priced.
However, the font is small enough in size that those aged 40 and over may tire unnecessarily peering at the letters.
Hopefully this helps you a bit!

A great small bible

This little bible ( please note the page size!) is fantastic! I have never owned a leather bible that opens up at Genesis 1 and stays open, laying flat! Usually, you have to hold the leather cover and cover pages open, not with this very soft little beauty! It falls open and stays open- amazing. Strictly speaking, to me for a regular bible, nothing beats the In Touch Ministries calfskin NASB from Lockman- read those reviews- but in the travel bible category- this is king! I may very well buy other's from Cambridge- this was my first, and I am very impressed!
Top quality Bible.

Cambridge is still constructing excellent Bibles. The small type takes a little time to get used to, but I really like this fine Bible. And, Amazon has the best price.
