Rogerson’s Chronicle combines a scholarly approach with sensitivity to a wider non-specialist readership. … The use of illustrations from a wide variety of sources throughout history shows the importance of these texts in the shaping of Western Civilisation in addition to that of the ancient Near East. … Rogerson tends towards a sceptical view of historicity.
- David Wood, Expository Times, 111/7 (2000), p. 239.
