Quote:
In classroom and scholarly study, the Gospels, Acts, and the Pauline letters receive far more attention than does the so-called “end” of the New Testament: Hebrews; James; 1 and 2 Peter; 1, 2, and 3 John; Jude; and Revelation.
Faithful to the End: An Introduction to Hebrews Through Revelation offers a careful study of these latter biblical letters, closely examining each one's authorship and origin, destination and audience, purpose, and major themes. Appropriate as a reference work or textbook in college and seminary classrooms, this volume uniquely combines head knowledge with a challenge to the heart, for it is purposefully titled after each book’s recurring theme of persevering in the faith.
Coauthor Terry L. Wilder writes, “Our hope is that God might use this text to help readers not only learn about these New Testament books, but also to appropriate the message contained in each. May we be faithful to the end!”

I bought it and flipped through. Be aware that the book is conservative to the point of championing traditional authorship of all of the epistles (except for Hebrews, the authorship of which isn't even discussed), so be prepared for more apologetics than critical scholarship. I'm glad I didn't pay $34.99 for it, but I'll certianly get fifty-nine cents worth of enjoyment out of it.
