The Story of Moses by L. L. Weedon | 1886 Antique Illustrated Book

A beautiful Victorian-era retelling of the biblical story of Moses, published in 1886 and illustrated throughout by H. K. Robinson.

The Story of Moses, retold by L. L. Weedon, follows the life of Moses beginning with his discovery among the reeds of the Nile. This antique volume features a wonderful pictorial cloth binding and charming black-and-white illustrations characteristic of late-19th-century children's books.

Published jointly by Ernest Nister of London and E. P. Dutton & Co. of New York, this surviving 1886 volume is now approximately 140 years old—a lovely piece of Victorian publishing history as well as a meaningful addition to a collection of antique religious literature.
