BMH Books of Winona Lake, Indiana, has announced the signing of an exclusive distribution agreement with one of BMH’s premier authors, Dr. John J. Davis.
Davis is a widely-known author, lecturer, scholar, and former president of Grace College and Seminary, Winona Lake, Indiana. A number of his works are already among BMH’s best-selling products, including Moses and the Gods of Egypt, Birth of a Kingdom, and Israel: From Conquest to Exile, which Davis co-authored with Dr. John C. Whitcomb.
With the signing of this agreement, BMH is now the sole distributor of all Davis works, including eight titles previously self-published by Davis. These include several humor and outdoors titles which Davis uses in his ministry of speaking at wild game dinners and conducting fishing clinics.
Newly-acquired titles include What About Cremation?; Islam, Terrorism, and the Middle East; How to Enjoy Your Surgery; Real Fisherman Are Never Thin; Real Fisherman Never Lie; Real Fisherman Never Wear Suits; and Favorite Fish and Seafood Recipes.
Davis has frequently participated in archaeological expeditions to the Holy Land. He joined the faculty of Grace Theological Seminary in 1965 and served in the Department of Hebrew and Old Testament, and he also served as president of the school for seven years prior to his retirement in 2004.
He currently has 18 books in print and has a wide variety of interests, including being a sports play-by-play announcer, recording CDs of his singing and guitar playing, publishing a regular newspaper column, and winning contests for his humor writing. He has also pastored churches in Florida and Indiana and is in demand as a speaker and lecturer. His books are widely adopted as texts for Bible colleges, seminaries, and other educational institutions.
Terry White, publisher of BMH Books, in announcing the agreement, said, “We are delighted to expand our line of Davis products and our service to those who follow his writing and scholarship. We are grateful for the confidence placed in us by Dr. Davis, and look forward to issuing both updates of his current books and several new projects on which he is working.
Davis said, “I am delighted to have this new and expanded relationship with BMH Books. This publishing company has proven itself to be one of quality and theological integrity. My works will now be in the hands of competent professionals and will enjoy wider exposure.”
Several Davis products are currently in the production process at BMH Books and will appear soon. They include updated and expanded versions of The Dead Sea Scrolls, and Conquest and Crisis, subtitled Studies in Joshua, Judges, and Ruth.
