Reviews
"The thorough index in the back is a wonderful supplement, as it adds a monthly focus (e.g., February celebrations) and a geographical focus (e.g., England, Ethiopia, Ireland) not found elsewhere in the work. A user-friendly, very interesting supplement to most religious collections, both academic and public." - Booklist

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (9,847)
- y***c (1817)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI love the 1959 record which was packed carefully in between two pieces of corrugated cardboard. I got it safely after it was shipped securely in a sturdy box labelled "Fragile" in block letters. The item is as described per the seller's words and clear photos. The previous owner kept the LP lovingly, in its original shrink-wrap and paper sleeve. The LP is of value to me as it plays well, sounding great, especially Randy Sparks' "Bright Moon, Bright Star". The seller is excellent! A⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
