Description: For your consideration is a fine example of early Christian literature for the common folk. "The causes of the decay of Christian piety, or, An impartial survey of the ruines of Christian religion, undermin'd by unchristian practice written by the author of The whole duty of man" by Richard Allestree. Genuine original 1674 printing, rebound by the fantastic Starr bookworks in period-correct leather with fantastic gold detailing and ornate tooling. The 1674 printing is also renouned as it features a striking vignette of the burning of St. Paul by Wenceslaus Hollar, which alone is featured at the Met Overall condition is exemplary. This book was chosen to have the investment of restoration due to the particularly clean nature of the pages, as shown. No moisture damage, only minimal tanning, no wormholes, no torn pages, not even any dog-ears. Although it has been rebound, the text may be the finest example known. FREE shipping to the USA and I'm happy to ship internationally at cost, though it will require tracking, insurance, and signature verification. Thanks for looking!
