The following is my english attempt at re-describing book. Written in Italian/latin. Boards show wear around edges. Contents clean, but does have formers owners library stamp in front and on title page. There are other works included along with the Della Bibbia. The Della Bibbia takes up the first 466 pages including it's index.
