The truth of revelation : demonstrated by an appeal to existing monuments, sculptures, gems, coins, and medals

Murray, John, 1786?-1851 · 1840 · London : W. Smith · 40 pictures

A Christian apologetic work by chemist and lecturer John Murray, published in London in 1840, arguing for the truth of scripture from monuments, sculptures, gems, coins and medals for a general reading public. Small wood-engraved vignettes show rocky Near Eastern landscapes, ruined cliffs, coastlines and skies built from ruled horizontal hatching, useful for textured line backdrops, cloud banding and eroded rock silhouettes.
