In it were broken jars containing scrolls of leather wrapped in linen cloth, inscribed in a strange writing.Dr. Millar Burrows played a leading role in the first efforts to establish the authenticity and meaning of these documents. .He tells the entire story - of the discoveries, of the attempts to date the manuscripts, of their content and their significance. His book is intended primarily for the interested lay reader whose imagination has been fired by these great finds, but those with some background in Biblical history will find it informative as well.".

Not only have new discoveries been made and more texts published; the discussion of the material has proceeded at a constantly accelerating pace . . . All this has produced and will continue to produce much new light on the meaning, relationships, and implications of these documents. . . .".
