How it all began...
THE RESEARCH presented in this introduction to the language of the Bible was prompted by a story of one Christian prisoner's phenomenal leap in reading test scores, as a result of reading the King James Bible.

He was advised that he was reading at the fifth grade level when he put his name on a long waiting list to enroll in the prison's high school equivalency program. He then began reading the King James Bible daily. Re-examination the next year showed that he was now reading at the 17th grade level -- post graduate!

How did reading one book, which some falsely claim is difficult, manage to help him, rather than frustrate him? This book answers that and many more questions you may have about the King James version.
