by John Warwick Montgomery (Author)
In this compelling volume, renowned scholar John Warwick Montgomery presents a meticulously curated collection of accounts documenting sightings of Noah's Ark and expeditions to Mount Ararat from antiquity to the modern era. Not merely for library research, these sources informed Dr. Montgomery's own journeys to Mount Ararat, which he summited in 1970. Drawing on historical sources, eyewitness testimonies, and rare archival materials, The Quest for Noah's Ark offers a rich tapestry of evidence surrounding one of the Bible's most famous events. Complete with detailed maps, photographs, and artistic renderings, this work serves both the historian and the Christian apologist. Organized into thematic sections--from the biblical account of the Flood to modern-day quests fueled by "Ark Fever"--this book provides a scholarly yet accessible exploration of a subject that continues to fascinate and inspire. This is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in biblical archaeology, historical theology, or the enduring legacy of the Genesis narrative.
