Beautiful 192 pages Hard Cover book with original paper dust jacket.  Inside in near pristine condition.  Jacket very rough, as shown, but cover in great shape. 

 

57 Illustrations from the BBC Movie that spurred the book.

 

Would make the perfect present for the vintage religious book collector.

  

Review:

 A simple and dignified retelling of the life of Christ from the incident of his appearing before the learned rabbis in the Temple in Jerusalem, through the Crucifixion and the days following. This is the book of the BBC broadcast, played a year or so ago and published in book form as the result of demand. The beautiful photographs which illustrate it are stills from the scenes of the dramatic version, some of them taken in the Holy Land. The characters are actors of the BBC program, whose ability and reverence shine forth from the pictures. The old story is dramatically told in a prose that is a joy to read. It makes a worthy addition to the general as well as the religious bookshelves in a time of resurgent interest in religious subjects.
