    Absolutely love it! Package arrived safely and was securely packaged, protecting it from any damages - very thankful for that! It came as described - brand new and I’m very happy I’m able to write my name on the empty pages. It holds sentimental value. I love the Bible’s from the Precious Moments Company and getting this fulfills my childhood memories. Highly recommend this seller. Would definitely buy from this seller again!

    Just as described! Excellent condition book with no signs of usage. Great value for the money, though I think it is definitely worth more! Book was packaged well and shipped by the seller in a very short amount of time. I will really enjoy reading this book, as General John Brown Gordon is one of my favorite generals! ❤️ He had a very fascinating life before, during, and after the war. Thank you so much! Would definitely order from this seller again!
