Joseph

218pp. Black cloth-covered boards, gilt titles on spine. Lightly bumped spine ends. Front bottom corner bumped. Text block edges foxing. First few pages and endpapers foxing; otherwise internally neat, clean and tight. Dust jacket mirrors book damage, light chipping to edges, price unclipped. 8vo. Looks at Joseph's life from a historical rather than biblical perspective, considering his development from a human point of view and representing him as a brilliant human being whose success depended on his own initiative, rather than as an aloof patriarch and Saviour of his people.
