"Robert Atwell's compilation of readings is delightful. (.) The readings cover a wide range of writers and a wide span of centuries. (.) I reckon that nearly 50% of them were new to me and so I gained real benefit from this book. (.) This is a book that I will gladly recommend to couples who are planning their marriage and looking for something to be read at the ceremony. (.

) I may even be prepared to lend it to them but I will definitely be wanting to keep this book for myself!" -- Bill Mahood, URC Minister at ST Ives and former Moderator of General Assembly, Reform, January 2006Â.
