Once listed, this will be the Only original copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. Happily, the book is in very nice condition. You can see the covers in the photos. The gilt lettering on both the front and s…pine is nicely bright. There are 2 tiny tears off the top edge of the spine. There is some superficial scratching, mostly on the rear cover where there's also some color variance. The cover edges are in very solid shape, no rub-through. Surprisingly, the same can be said for the cover corners. Quite positively, the book is very solidly bound from cover to cover. I turned over every page. There are no cracks or spaces between any of them or between either cover and any page. The covers are nicely, tightly bound. The pages are in excellent condition. Exceptionally clean, I found only two text pages and two Plates with some spotting off their top edge, not reaching the print (the second blank front and rear end papers also have a little spotting off their top edges). Creasing is not an issue. I didn't see any tears. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. Two pen jags on margin of one page, no other writing anywhere in the book. The frontispiece (which looks great) is protected by a tissue guard in very good shape. The plates are all in Very good condition. Two early text pages have a speck-sized loss at the tip of their top corners. The top page edge is gilt. It looks very good, very shiny. The middle and bottom page edges are deckled or rough-cut, but only some of the bottom edges actually appear rough-cut. Only the text pages are numbered, 206 in total. The very extensive Appendixes (A-F) begin at page 75. A Bibliography and an Index of Names and Pictures bring the book to a close. Eleven of the plates are bound within the Appendixes. 'John Crome, once known as Old Crome to distinguish him from his artist son John Berney Crome, was an English landscape painter of the Romantic era, one of the principal artists and founding members of the Norwich School of painters. He lived in the English city of Norwich for all his life. Most of his works are of Norfolk landscapes. In 1803 Crome and Robert Ladbrooke formed the Norwich Society of Artists, a group that also included Robert Dixon, Charles Hodgson, Daniel Coppin, James Stark and George Vincent. Their first exhibition was in 1805; it marked the start of the Norwich School of painters, the first art movement created outside London. Crome contributed 22 works. He served as President of the Society several times and held the position at the time of his death. He exhibited 13 works at the Royal Academy between 1806 and 1818. He visited Paris in 1814, following the defeat of Napoleon, and later exhibited views of Paris, Boulogne, and Ostend. Crome's work is in the collections of public art galleries, including the Tate Gallery and the Royal Academy in London, and the Castle Museum in Norwich. His works, renowned for their originality and vision, were inspired by direct observation of the natural world combined with a comprehensive study of old masters.' 'Charles Henry Collins Baker was an English art historian and painter. He exhibited at the Royal Academy and at the New English Art Club. In 1911, he became the art critic for the Saturday Review as well as an assistant and secretary to Sir Charles Holroyd, Director of the National Gallery. While working at the Gallery he befriended E. M. Forster, who was working there as a cataloguer and guard. In 1912, Collins Baker wrote Lely and the Stuart Portrait Painters, considered to be his most important book; Ellis Waterhouse called it the 'last great scholarly monument' of 'the last great age of the self-taught scholar in England.' He retained his post of Keeper of the National Gallery when Charles Holmes succeeded Holroyd as Director in 1916. Collins Baker and Holroyd have been described as the 'driving forces of the Gallery' of that period.'. John Crome (illustrator).

SYNOPSIS: The book's controversial assertions that the life of Jesus should be written like the life of any historic person, and that the Bible could and should be subject to the same critical scrutiny as other historical documents caused some controversy and enraged many Christians, and many Jews were enraged because of its depiction of Judaism as foolish and absurdly illogical and for insisting that Jesus and Christianity was superior (Wiki).
