About This Item
Norwich, Conn., USA: Henry Bill , 1872. Oversized hardcover without dust jacket, dark browm embossed leather covers, 735 pages including illustrations, plus pages of ads for other books;---considerable cover wear, part of spine backstrip missing, overall crudely but effectively held together by layers of clear tape and glue; however, the text block is intact and complete, tight within itself and still surprising tight within the covers: one previous owner's signature in pencil, all pages very clean and unmarked, no foxing; needs a loving home and respect for its age, and perhaps rebinding if you can spare some change. [this copy priced low, priced to go to a good home as bookseller is nearing retirement, but extra S & H at cost will be requested] FULL TITLE: An Illustrated History of the Holy Bible: Being a Connected Account of the Remarkable Events and Distinguished Characters Contained in the Old and New Testaments, and in Jewish History During the Four Hundred Years Intervening Between the Time of Malachi and the Birth of Christ; Including also the Life of Christ and His Apostles: The Whole Embracing a Period of Four Thousand Years, With Notes Critical, Topographical, and Explanatory, Edited by Alvan Bond, Assisted in Geology by Prof. C.
