Rather rare first edition of Sawyer's first edition of Tischendorf's Greek New Testament. Organized afresh by pericope rather than "verses." Fascinating translation and the first appearance of its kind.
Sawyer, Leicester, Ambrose. The New Testament, Translated from the Original Greek, with Chronological Arrangement of the Sacred Books, and Improved Divisions of Chapters and Verses. Boston. John P. Jewett and Company. 1858. x + 423pp.
Original full leather, rubbed, but solid and not unattractive. A light tide mark on first few and last few leaves. Else very solid and clean.
