About This Item
Little Hands and God's Book was published in 1904 to celebrate the centenary of the British and Foreign Bible Society which was a charitable organisation founded in 1804 to facilitate access to the Bible around the world in a variety of languages. Written by children's author Wiliam Canton, this history of the society was directed at a younger audience, and includes many images documenting the missionary work undertaken by the society around the world.
This volume is in Fair condition. There is significant staining and wear to the cloth covering the boards and significant foxing, particularly to the flyleaves. The front flyleaf also bears the name of a previous owner. The front hinge has a slight crack, but otherwise the binding is tight and the images and text are all legible.
