The Year of Living Biblically by A. J. Jacobs, original hardback published in 2007 by Simon & Schuster, now available in a number of formats and sources, all of which are listed on A. J. Jacobs’ website. You may also listen to Jacobs’ TED talk on the subject of his Biblical year and read an interview of Jacobs in Christianity Today.
