Noah and the ark makes it on everyone’s list of top ten favorite Bible stories—right up there with Jonah and the whale, and David and Goliath. But no biblical account has raised as many questions and has generated as much controversy as Noah and the ark. The story in the Bible is just the beginning! Was the massive ark seaworthy? Did the Flood cover the whole earth? Has the ark been found on Mount Ararat? Where can you see the ark today? And at the heart of the age-of-the-earth debate is Noah and the ark.

NOAH: The Real Story neither advocates a 6,000-year-old earth nor sets out to debunk the story told in the Bible. Instead it gives a thorough but brief introduction to the issues surrounding the story of Noah: the flood, the animals, the ark, and the search on Mount Ararat. It’s a great introduction. One reviewer called it a CliffsNotes to the story.

After you’ve seen the movie (opens March 28) starring Russell Crowe as Noah, “the first environmentalist,” who says that if mankind disappeared, “it would be a better world,” this is the first book you should read to find out NOAH: The Real Story.
