About This Item
Melbourne: Hutchinson of Australia / Victor Gollancz, 1978. 1st Australian ed.. Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), black & white photos, endpaper map, minor edgewear, cover design differs from stock photo. 272 pp. First Australian edition, published by Hutchinson of Australia, on behalf of Victor Gollancz (not the Book Associated edition). Ian Wilson investigates the fascinating story of a 14-foot linen cloth that bears the shadowy imprint of a bearded crucified man laid out in death (said to be Jesus). The author examines all the historical and scientific evidence, and then provides his own ingenious explanation for the journey of the Shroud in the 13 centuries unaccounted for in its official history.
