I'm the same as you Glenn. The other book does look very good though. I echo your thoughts of thanks.
Wow, the second book is a real gem. Thank you FL![8-|]
Thanks much!
The publication date for The Book of Acts..." is 1990 but Hemer died in 1987. Does anyone know when the book was actually written?
Thank you, Faithlife!

From the forward:
Early in 1987 Dr Hemer fell ill and he died in June of that year. Fortunately his work on Acts was well advanced, and it was immediately apparent that, p viii though what had been completed lacked the author’s final revision and some parts were in draft form, the manuscript was largely in a publishable form. The task of editing and completing the work was entrusted to Mr Conrad H. Gempf, and on behalf of Colin’s many friends I should like to express our deep gratitude to him for his diligence and care in this labour of love.
I. Howard Marshall, “Foreword,” in The Book of Acts in the Setting of Hellenistic History, ed. Conrad H. Gempf (Winona Lake, IN: Eisenbrauns, 1990), vii–viii.
Thanks, FL!

Same here, thanks FL, in Washington State[;)]
I am on the fence about Hermer's book. For those of you who bought it, how do you imagine using it? Is it a book you would plan on reading all the way through or just using for reference? If just for reference, how would you integrate it with say a Bible class on Acts? Since it is arranged topically rather than textually, I'm thinking you would either have to rely on searches or an index (if there is one) to find portions of the books dealing with a particular passage. Thanks for helping me make a decision here!
