The King James Study Bible is $3.99. Understandably, "King James Study Bible" is a popular book title and I even have trouble telling the different covers apart, so search on the ISBN (9781418589141) if you're not using the links from the sale page.

I just want to point that out to Mobilereaders that the study aids included in this book go back as far as
1968. None of them, it appears are more recent than 1999, the "publication date" on this study Bible is 1999.
Information about biblical topics does not change in the exponential way that it does in many fields of study nowadays, for example, in the pure sciences (physics, medicine, etc.). However, it does change. One fact that quickly comes to mind is how knowledge of biblical places and customs rapidly grows (and sometimes changes) from, for example, archaeological "digs."
When Mobilereaders consider purchasing this--or any other aid to Bible study--they may want to consider the date when the study aids were written so the information will be as accurate and up-to-date as they desire.
