Presented by the Rochester Diocesan Board of Education, for the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. This is a book following the Gospels closely and exploring and explaining them in an appreciative, celebratory style, with gentleness and enthusiasm for Jesus and his teachings. Maps included. No page numbers, oddly. A presentation copy; brown leather, a little worn on its edges, with ribbed spine and gilt lettering and boxing; marbled endpapers and page edges; binding good, with slight cracking at the beginning of the Gospel of Saint Luke; endpapers with presentation label; minimal light foxing at either end. Overall in very good condition considering its age.
