Tony Benson contributed articles to The Testimony for forty-three years, and served as the magazine’s publishing Editor from 1980 until his death in 2009. His contributions were always carefully researched, well informed and easy to read; and, with well over a thousand articles appearing under his name, Tony was one of The Testimony’s most prolific writers ever, as well as being the magazine’s longest-serving Publishing Editor.

Tony’s amazing output covered a very wide range of topics; and The Pen of a Ready Writer brings together a selection of his best writings under a series of headings which represent the major areas of his personal interests and study:

• History,
• Archaeology,
• Prophecy,
• Doctrine,
• Exposition,
• The Jews and their Land, and
• Signs of the Times.

It is a testament to Tony’s skill, his sustained capacity for hard work, and his willingness to serve, that he was able to maintain both the range and the quality of his contributions to The Testimony over such a long period of time.

Compiled by an exhaustive Index and a comprehensive Bibliography of Tony’s contributions to The Testimony, The Pen of a Ready Writer is published by Tony’s Testimony colleagues as a mark of their respect for a truly outstanding writer and Editor.
