Lundquist & Ricks By Study and Also by Faith Vol 2 1990 First Edition

This substantial second volume of the two-volume Nibley Festschrift gathers twenty scholarly essays reflecting the unusually broad range of subjects associated with Hugh W. Nibley (1910-2005) - Book of Mormon studies, biblical and ancient Near Eastern scholarship, early Christianity, Judaism, literature, religious history and contemporary society. Contributors include Richard Lloyd Anderson, Richard L. Bushman, Eugene England, Paul Y. Hoskisson, Noel B. Reynolds, John L. Sorenson, John A. Tvedtnes, John W. Welch, Genevieve De Hoyos, Avraham Gileadi, Arthur Henry King, Jacob Neusner, Thomas F. Rogers, and George S. Tate, among others.
