Description: The publisher's blurb reads, ''In a publishing event of true millennial significance, virtuoso illustrator and bookman Barry Moser has created the first and only Bible of the twentieth century to be illustrated by a single artist. In the magnum opus of his career, Moser spent four years handcrafting luminous and indelibly beautiful engravings, each inspired by specific lines of scripture for his limited (400 copies) letterpress edition of The Holy Bible published by his Pennyroyal Caxton Press for book collectors. This Viking trade edition has been published in the strictest standards of quality and durability for a broader audience. The result is this Bible whose elegance and artistry will not be seen again in our time.'' Features 232 illustrations. This King James Version follows Frederick "Scrivner's 1873 edition and is presented without verse numbers.''
