Great advert on back cover - Oldridge's balm of Columbia...hair, whiskers, or, moustaches. Wonderful front cover design, daisies mingled with leaves, title, author, publisher overprinted or so it seems. The book is in The Daisy Books series,

There's a review on Goodreads that says one of the interesting theological points in this book is the contention that each plague was directed against on of the Egyptians' major gods, showing that Israel's God had the ascendancy. Partly for this reason, I decided to keep the book. Other reviews indicate that it will take a great many pages of (seriously outdated after 160 additional years of archaeological scholarship) ethnological and historical detail to get as far as the plagues, so I guess I'm committed to a long term relationship with the book.… (more)

The life of Moses, skipping most of the stuff in the Bible.

It's an awful movie, but it's a reasonably entertaining sort of awful, with plenty of opportunity for exclaiming "sweet fancy Moses" at the screen. Surprisingly, it took nearly three hours before I started to get bored. I can't figure out what audience it's intended for: it's too preachy for the non-religious, and too grossly inaccurate for the religious.

This is an obscure old book about a Jewish girl living in Jerusalem at the time of Jesus's ministry, death, and resurrection. I found it in my parents' attic. The story is told from the perspective of the girl, who never physically meets Jesus, writing to her father about what's happening and ending up becoming a disciple of Christ. Basically the story you read in the Bible told from a new perspective.
