Can anyone suggest some REALLY good books about the history of the bible?

Books that discuss the authors, authenticity, culture and basically the entire history of how it came to be.

"Holy Blood Holy Grail" is a good start, just read the part about the bible history if the rest of the book sounds boring to you.

The Unauthorized Version by Robin Lane Fox is what you want. Forget the Holy Blood - conspiracy theory rubbish.
