Not sure how you'd construct a search to find those. But I happen to have tagged a number of books in my library as BibleIntro as I've come across this type of book, and many of them do have at least book-by-book summaries, if not chapter by chapter.
So I've done a search in my library for "Chapter Three", "Chapter 3" among books tagged BibleIntro. Then I looked through those 89 results to find ones which were actual summaries of chapters. I've come up with these books which give what you want:
The Bible Panorama: Enjoying the Whole Bible with a Chapter-by-Chapter Guide
Holman Quick Source Guide to Understanding the Bible
How to Read the Bible Book by Book - this one sometimes chunks together a few chapters at a time, but it's mostly chapter-by-chapter
Summarized Bible: Complete Summary of the Old Testament
Summarized Bible: Complete Summary of the New Testament
For a bit more detail, summarizing verses at a time, for the Old Testament only, there's:
The Old Testament Survey Series
Other things you could search for in your library:
"thru the bible", "through the bible", "book by book", "chapter by chapter"; "survey"; "summary"
Summaries of Bible books
How would I find summaries for a Bible book? For example, how would I do a search to find a summary of chapter 1, chapter 2, chapter 3 and so forth of Bible book?

If I remember well, there was a poster that actually had the notes in English, and said he got it way back, I have looked for it but to no avail in L8.

You can perform Basic Search of type:bible-commentary (as a resource) for:
(Heading:outline WITHIN {Milestone <Bible Acts>}) OR (<Bible Acts> NEAR Heading:outline)
Some Outlines are not included within the milestone, hence the NEAR term.
For individual chapters, you can try:
Heading:outline WITHIN {Milestone <Bible Acts 1>}

MM, LOL.
Sometimes things seem to be what they are not. If the devil disguises as an angel of light, can a true believer disguise (or be perceived) as a demon?
Good question, got to investigate it.
By the way some traditions think that the imperfect number (3 times) has more to do with
Vicarius Fili Dei phrase, but that does not fit the seeming Biblical requirements.

This is helpful to me. Thank you Dave!

Have you tried looking at the Factbook entry for the book of the Bible? Here's a sample of Acts:

Thanks. That seems to work too. Brings up a ton of stuff.

If you have my book, The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, you will find a brief summary of the contents of every Bible chapter in this resource.

I do have it and will use it. Thanks.
Looks like you've come along way on the five dollar Christmas card present. [G]
Thanks again.

Hi MM:
maybe something from the following will be of help to you:

Thanks Hamilton. After fine-tuning my preferences I found that there are some in that loooooong list that I have and didn't know it. Funny thing about owning a "few" books. You or should I say me, can't keep track of all of them and once and awhile you'll be looking for a book online and discover that I've had it all along.
Thanks again [Y]

Totally understand what you are saying MM.
That is why is so helpful to get involved with the threads you start, that help focus on certain kind of information, and allows us to discover we have super resources not explored before.
Thanks for your relevant input, and feel free to keep bringing good topics and questions to the light, so that we can find good research topics and for edification.
Grace and peace.
