The Bible: An American Translation

The book is bound in red cloth and shows typical signs of wear for its age. The spine and covers have some scuffing, and there are no dust jackets. As an ex-library copy, it may contain library markings or stamps. The binding appears intact, but the pages may show some yellowing or foxing due to age.

This edition of "The Bible: An American Translation" was published by The University of Chicago Press in October 1935. Authored by J. M. Powis Smith and Edgar J. Goodspeed, this translation provides a unique American perspective on the sacred texts, with the Old Testament translated by scholars under Smith's editorship and the New Testament by Goodspeed. The book is bound in a sturdy red cloth cover and was printed in Chicago, Illinois. This particular copy does not have a dust jacket and shows signs of being an ex-library edition, which may indicate its historical use and journey through various readers. This edition is significant for collectors and scholars interested in early 20th-century biblical translations and the academic contributions of Smith and Goodspeed. The book's condition reflects its age, with some wear expected in a volume of this vintage.
