Septuagint

I heard someone mention the Septuagint Bible. The oldest known Bible. I looked it up in the Catholic encyclopedia and it is very interesting I ordered one these tonight. Click on Photo for Amazon link.

Anybody know anything about it? This one is both in English and Greek.

This edition of The Septuagint with Apocrypha (the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament and the apocryphal books of the same linguistic origin) gives the complete Greek text along with a parallel English translation by Brenton.
