Society for Old Testament Study Booklist
"One of the best and most readable introductions to the books of the Apocrypha which has so far been produced."
New Theology Review
"The clarity, sympathy, and scholarship with which Harrington presents the apocrypha will help move these important texts from the periphery more to the center of attention on the part of those who read the Bible. This book will become an appreciated addition to the bibliography of introductory courses in biblical studies at the undergraduate and seminary levels. This is a very fine work, providing the general reader with a needed and welcome invitation to the apocrypha."
