About This Book
This facsimile edition is exactly identical to the genuine original 1560 first edition and first printing of the Geneva Bible. It measures 11 inches tall by 8.75 inches wide by 3.25 inches thick, bound in hardcover burgundy bonded leather with gold stamping along the spine.
Digitally re-mastered and slightly enlarged for easier reading, it contains all 80 original books of the Bible, including the Old Testament, Apocrypha, and New Testament. Known as the Bible of the Protestant Reformation, it was the Bible of the Puritans and Pilgrims.
This edition marks the first Bible in English to add numbered verses to each chapter of scripture. It was quoted by William Shakespeare more than 5,000 times in his plays. The images within are produced by hand-created woodcuts.
As a bonus, it includes an early Geneva Bible title page leaf, which normally sells for $99 each.
