Two ribbon markers. Gilding on all three page edges. Printed on Abbey Wove paper. Presented in a buckram-covered wooden slipcase lined with moiré silk, with a sliding tray in the base for ease of use. 1,904 pages in total. Book size: 11" x 7¼". Four hundred years ago, a book was published that would be read for centuries by countless generations and that still remains of central importance to the English-speaking world. The King James Bible is one of the most influential books of all time, not just as a devotional work but as a narrative of great power, drama and poetry. This Folio Society edition is published to commemorate the 400th anniversary of its original publication. Limited to just 940 numbered copies, of which this is number 3, it is a beautiful and lasting edition of one of the most important books in history. Originally limited to 1,000 copies, however, 60 sets of sheets from this edition were chosen by Sangorski & Sutcliffe to create the limited edition Diamond Jubilee Bible. )
