At least one website is devoted to a blow-by-blow refutation of the NKJV on the basis that it could not be the word of God if it varies from the original King James Version (KJV). Most biblical scholars take a broader view of translations -- examining them, comparing them to earlier translations in various languages, and offering opinions about their usefulness in determining what the original writers of the texts intended.
My particular edition of Nelson's NKJV features their "Brown Aniline Gloss Pigskin" cover. This was my mother's bible and was not heavily used. However, the cover, which was not trimmed to the size of the pages, has not held up over time; the bottom edges have flattened and chipped. No doubt a more expensive edition would not have these problems.
Following the biblical text, is a 28-page dictionary-concordance, which includes a list of abrreviations of Books of the Bible, a Key to Pronunciation, and a dictionary-style alphabetical index of biblical terms and key personages portrayed. The front-cover end pages feature a presentation page (for gift inscriptions), and the back-cover end pages feature a color map of the Old Testament Holy Land.
The NKJV, as well as other editions of the Christian bible, are available for free download on the Internet.
