A need of the day is supplied in this volume of Bible stories which is a new and revised edition of a book originally issued at double the price. In making the text interesting to young readers, genealogies, doctrines and the hard-to-understand passages have been omitted. The illustrations are fine reproductions of the work of old masters.
“The present edition is in more popular form than when it first appeared.”
