Title: Ultra-Trim Bible-KJV
Description: This is a Bible that literally can fit in your pocket, yet still be generally readable. The font is very small -- teeny tiny, to be precise, probably a mere six or seven point font at best. However, the print is a clear san serif font style (Arial, Helvetica or some such simple More...
and clear font), the ink is sharp and the pages, despite being onion-skin thin, doesn't have much bleed-through from the other side, so even with my close-to-needing-glasses eyes, I can read the text easily without much strain.

The bible is less than one inch thick, only three-and-a-half inches wide and seven inches long -- a thick checkbook and day-planner would be larger than this. The leather-like cover and gold-trimmed pages make it an attractive book, and it even has a fabric cord for marking pages.

The version for this book is the New Revised Standard Version, put out in 1989 as an update to the widely acclaimed Revised Standard Version of 1952. This bible has the Old Testament and New Testament in traditional Protestant/Catholic Christian order; it does not contain the Apocrypha. The gospels, Acts and Revelation of John all have red-letter print for Jesus' words. The text is presented in single column, showing poetry or prose in textual arrangement as would any large-format bible.

This is a bible that is at a premium for space; there are no maps and few extra pages of information apart from the bible text itself, but the scripture text is marked for footnotes that have text translation highlights and some minor variation/source information. There are four pages of version/translation history prior to the beginning of the text, and front-pieces for each of the testaments, but no graphics, no charts or extra information inserted in the pages of text.

For those who want a bible to carry around on a regular basis, this makes a good companion. Any serious reader will want larger formatted text for study, and prolonged use of this size of bible will probably not be satisfactory. The same company makes bibles of this size and print format in other versions, such as the King James Version.
