The Canon of Scripture by F.F. Bruce is certainly one of the best books I've completed in the past year. This highly informative 350 page resource sheds plenty of light on the oft-cloudy questions of how we arrived at 66 books/letters instead of, for example, 65 or 67. Bruce deals at length with both the Old and New Testaments. He balances academic information with practical thoughtfulness extremely well. I learned a ton from this book and have a better appreciation for the Bible to show for it. Highly recommended.
