Descripción del artículo del vendedor

1907 John W. Luce (Boston, Massachusetts), 5 1/8 x 6 7/8 inches tall hardcover, no dust jacket (as issued), red paper-covered boards over cream spine, every page red ruled, 43 pp. Moderate to heavy soiling, staining, rubbing and edgewear to covers, with bumping and fraying to tips. Old hand lettering to spine. On the blank front free-endpaper, a neat Christmas 1910 gift inscription to Margaretta M.

The work is intended as an inspirational guide, encouraging readers to emulate Christ's virtues in their daily lives and interactions. It provides a framework for understanding the profound impact of Christ's humanity on Western ideals of virtue and ethics. This 1907 first edition was published as a Lenten offering. While the book's foreword is by the notable American author and clergyman Edward Everett Hale, the main essay itself was originally published anonymously. Later reprints often attribute the full work to Edward Everett Hale, likely due to his prominent contribution.…
