The article presents an overview of the book "Archaeology of the Bible," by George A. Barton. In this book, Barton has produced one of surpassing interest. In the first place, it is more comprehensive than other works on the subject. Secondly, the inclusion of copious translations from Sumerian, Babylonian, and Egyptian texts are in themselves sufficient to mark the work as a most notable contribution; and in the third place, the work contains no less than 114 plates, referring to every section of the book and furnishing practically a complete list of all monuments found in Palestine, Babylonia, Assyria, Egypt, and Asia Minor, that bear on Biblical archaeology.
