Question
Hi, Mark
On Feb 5/06, you received a question on a large Bible from a fellow named Michael. By his description I have the very same Bible! And like him, I am struggling to find out more about it. Any help you can provide is much appreiated.

Answer
Hello Lonna.
There's nothing more I can add really. Bibles are surprisingly common, they are the most reprinted books in the English language. Yours, if it's the same, may date from the late Victorian period. An antiquarian bookseller might give you a proper valuation or perhaps you could contact Harper Collins which is the current name of the publishers.

Expertise

I have a good basic knowledge of British political history, but my speciality is the Kings and Queens of England and Scotland from 927 AD. Please no social history questions, it's not my strong point and I'm unlikely to answer them.

Experience

No professional experience, but a lifelong interest and access to a variety of sources of information.
