In the tradition of parents telling their children stories from the Bible, this new edition of a delightful book presents a continuous narrative of the Scriptures that brings the great heroes and events from the Bible to life. It is unabridged and features 168 stories from the Old and New Testaments, copious BW illustrations, a presentation page and a retouched version of the 1904 cover. Since it was written in 1904 by an American Methodist Episcopal Clergyman, Jesse Lyman Hurlbut, over 4 million copies have been distributed.
