| 520 | _a"The Greatest English Classic" by Cleland Boyd McAfee is a scholarly study of the King James Version of the Bible and its profound impact on literature and cultural history, likely written in the early 20th century. The book explores the historical development leading to the creation of this famous translation, its characteristics as a literary work, and its significant influence on English and American history. The opening of the work sets the stage by discussing the importance of the English Bible before the King James Version, highlighting how different translations evolved through time to meet societal needs. McAfee delves into the historical context, detailing the numerous figures, such as Wiclif and Tindale, who pioneered the translation of the Bible into English, emphasizing their motivations stemming from both a love for scripture and a desire for greater social awareness. This portion establishes a foundation for understanding the eventual emergence of the King James Version and its lasting legacy as a cornerstone of English literature and religious thought.
