Jun. 12—The Bible is the most read book in the world. It's also the most recognizable book ever published by human hands. In the past 50 years alone, more than 3.9 million copies have been sold. Filled with prayers, hymns, historical accounts, parables, prophecies, maps and sketches, no other book can rival it — not the collected quotations from Chairman Mao Tse Tung, not Homer's "Odyssey," .
As we reported recently, the aviation-themed TV miniseries, Masters of the Air, has officially begun filming in Britain. Based upon Donald L. Miller's compelling book, Masters of the Air: America's Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany, the production will follow the true and deeply personal story of the American bomber crews who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep in World War II. The saga is the third small-screen limited series collaboration between producers Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, who also shepherded the highly-acclaimed WWII epics Band of Brothers (2001) and The Pacific (2010) for HBO. This series will run on Apple TV+.
