Antique 19th Century Practical Piety by Hannah More

A beautifully timeworn antique copy of Practical Piety; or, The Influence of the Religion of the Heart on the Conduct of the Life by Hannah More.

Published by the American Tract Society of New York, this early devotional work explores Christian faith as something lived through everyday character, prayer, conduct, love of God, humility, and devotion.

This copy has wonderful age and patina, with a brown embossed cloth cover, heavily aged pages, exposed spine beneath the missing backstrip, and nearly 400 pages of text. A beautiful piece of 19th-century Christian history.
