At times, I loved this book. At times, I hated this book. Price is in his wheelhouse when he is discussing Biblical content. He's super knowledgeable about archeaology, history, and current events. I don't go in for some of his conjecture and expectations. He holds a quirky view of Ezekiel 38-39: that the events will occur prior to the Tribulation period.

There is so much information packed into this book. The author doesn't leave any stone unturned. Really interesting read, especially the parts showing how what is happening in modern Israel lines up with prophecy and what needs to be fulfilled in the future. It left me with a sense of anticipation and urgency concerning the idea that we are one of the last generations.
