two thirds of the book passes before any verse-length quotation from the scrolls is made. this is the story of the discovery, dissemination, and production of the scrolls more so than any exegesis of their content. From Mohammed the Wolf tossing stones into caves to a Metropolitan of the Syrian Jacobite Church frustrated in trying to gain financially from them, we get the story of how they came out. The Essenes get their own chapter as Wilson does a good job in a short work to place these texts and their implications in the inter-testament period and helping complete the story of a subjugated Judea with Messianic visions.
