Description

Here is the Book of Books in a luxurious edition with 131 engravings by Gustavo Dore, 148 full-color illustrations, gilded trim, and hardcover with gold stamping, in a 9 inch by 12 inch format. This standard version of the Holy Bible was translated from the Latin Vulgate into Spanish by P. Petisco, the famous Jesuit professor of the University of Salamanca, and published for the illustrious D. Felix Torres Amat, Bishop of Astorga, in the 19th century. It helped popularize the Bible in the Spanish-speaking world, giving many Christians full access to the Scriptures for the first time.
