For BBG’s first Bible giveaway I have teamed up with Crossway Publishing to give away an ESV Heirloom Single Column Legacy Bible in black goatskin. To enter just sign up for our newsletter. I will be receiving this Bible in a few weeks (release date is 9/30/2014). I will write a review and take a few photos (while handling it as little as possible). The winner will be by random drawing. I will announce the drawing date later, but I wanted to go ahead and let you all know about this so you can sign up. To enter, sign up here:
Here is the info about this Bible from Crossway’s website:
The ESV Heirloom Single Column Legacy Bible is a special edition of the original ESV Single Column Legacy Bible. Based on the Renaissance ideal of a perfect page, the Single Column Legacy Bible features a simple, clear layout with generous margins.
As with Crossway’s other Heirloom Bibles, the Heirloom Single Column Legacy Bible is printed in the Netherlands on high-quality European Bible paper and features art gilding, four ribbon markers, and an extra-smooth sewn binding. It is available in black and brown goatskin covers. The Heirloom Single Column Legacy Bible is a fine edition that combines elegant design with the best production materials available.

My thanks to Crossway for sponsoring this giveaway. Here’s my review of the Single Column Legacy in brown TruTone: ESV Single Column Legacy
Looking forward to the review on this Randy, the Heirloom bindings are real nice, very similar to the Cambridge Goatskin, but with leather liners and a thicker somewhat stiffer feel.
I’m excited for a review as well. I am mostly a kjv kind of guy, but am gaining interest into the ESV. I recently bought a Cambridge Clarion based on your review, and I adore it. I’m really digging the paragraph format.
Thanks Christopher. I’m glad you like the Clarion. I’m also mostly a KJV guy. I’ve been using the NKJV edition as my daily reader and now I’m reading the ESV more and more. Now that I’ve read paragraph format I don’t want to go back to verse format as my reading Bible. I should be getting this Legacy soon. I’m looking forward to giving it away (thanks to Crossway for sponsoring).
Looking forward to your review! ESV is my favorite translation.
