Mackay, Alastair I. : Farming and Gardening in the Bible. Emmaus (PA) : Rodale Press, 1950. First edition/First impression. Octavo (8vo), 9.25"/23.3 cm h. Bound in publisher's light blue-green-gray cloth, burgundy lettering to spine. Plain white endpapers. [6], 7-280. 21 chapters (see photos); indices of scriptural references, and subject. Condition notes: A very good first printing. Lacks dust jacket. Spine ends rolled, corners lightly bumped. Binding leans slightly. Both pastedowns show ownership stamp of a former private owner; a neat and discreet pen gift inscription can be found to head ffep; else unmarked. Interior shows light tanning and an occasional spot. A fascinating study. We personally inspect every book we offer.
