Review: 

This book provides 200 questions and answers - forty each in five different categories - the Law, the Prophets, Wisdom, the Gospel and the Epistles. The book is designed to be used as a quiz game - keeping score (based on the difficulty of the questions - each question is awarded a particular point value) to determine the winner. It could just as easily be used as an informal reinforcement of Bible Study. It is very similar in format to the New Catholic Quiz (also reviewed on this site).

Sample Questions from this book: (page one)

Additional notes: 

Imprimatur

Later update: The "Catholic Bible Quiz" (sometimes listed simply as "Bible Quiz") series which this book is from seems to have been out-of-print and difficult to find for a long time.
