Seven Steps To Bethlehem

Some thirty years ago the author set himself the task of finding the date of Christ's birth, but was told at the outset of his enquiry,"It is an impossible tangle that cannot be straightened out. You will be wasting your time." Undaunted, he proceded to gather data, and piece together all the evidence, from Biblical studies, historical records, calendars, and astronomy. Gradually the problems began to be resolved, and today he believes he has untangled the "Gordian knot". Readers will find it a fascinating and rewarding detective story; and the book contains an incredible amount of data which will provide students in related fields with much valuable reference material.
