Details
Description
Beautiful velvet-bound copy of the classic Christian devotional texts.
Prayer books like this one were ubiquitous in Victorian households of members of the Church of England; the prayer books, like the Church of England itself, rose from King Henry VIII's break with Catholicism. Intended to be used during Sunday church services and as devotional works, many copies of The Book of Common Prayer display varied signs of use. A well-preserved and attractive example.
