The Jane Austen Pocket Bible by Holly Ivin
The Jane Austen Pocket Bible - Holly Ivins,Ivins
 

I’ve wanted to check this out for a while but I couldn’t resist when I found it’s only £1 on Kindle! (Zero willpower where books are concerned)

As it turns out, it was money well spent.  I’ve loved Jane for many years now and was worried it would merely be reiterating what I’d read elsewhere, but it is full of insights into Jane’s world. From actual stately homes which are reported to have influenced her writing, to the historical context of the period via character breakdowns and their incomes! Recommended reading for any Austen fans out there; seasoned or newcomers!

Bibles: An Illustrated History from Papyrus to Print
Bibles: An Illustrated History from Papyrus to Print - Christopher De Hamel A nice collection of photos of illuminated and other antique Bibles drawing from the collections of the Bodleian. From early papyrus documents to Bibles written in Native American translations, we get a good sampling over time of how the Bible has been written, put into books, scrolls, so on, and translated over time. Many of these were not just sacred books; they were works of art. Book includes good introductions to each section. Pretty good photography.
