Any thoughts on this resource? Is there a lot or a little? Can't tell from the product page how big it is
Thanks in advance
Click the "See inside" link below the picture to have a quick-view of the book. If you click the table icon on the top right of the viewer. It should take you to the TOC. From there, you can see most of the illustrations by category.
It is huge, over 4000 good, relevant, brief, modern, useful stories and anecdotes. It is actually 4 fairly good-sized books and an excellent price.
Some of the stories lack sources or clarity about being truthful--for instance "An English businessman once said..." Well, when? where? why? Who was the English businessman? Is this just a story or is it true?
On the other hand, there are plenty that are adequately documented.
I recommend it as one of the better resources for illustrations.

Well similar to Jesus, “A sower went out sow...” Earthly stories to make or illustrate a point. That’s why their called Illustrations, not everything needs to be documented.
The Illustrations are great 👍 if you can, buy it OP
