Item description from seller

12mo; This lovely small handheld bible is bound in green leather (red JHS medallions on front/rear) with extensive floral gilt borders, 5 raised bands on the spine, marbled endpapers, gilt foredges all around, clearly a ladies devotional bible. Previous (first) owner's name on first blank page (Eliza Kenyon) is dated 1775. Pages unmarked, binding in excellent condition, some wear to the corners/spine ends, no foxing. For the age, in amazing condition. Prepare for VERY small and fine typeface, something of a feat of printing and binding to have withstood the centuries so well. A small jewel of a book.
