1603 Geneva Bible Quarto (Cambridge Style Contemporary Binding)
As a Reformation artifact, the 1603 Geneva Bible Quarto embodies the spirit of the Protestant Reformation. Its translation was taking place by English exiles in Geneva during the reign of Queen Mary I, a time of persecution for Protestants in England. The Geneva Bible became a symbol of Protestant resistance against Catholicism and the authority of the monarchy. Its widespread use among Puritans and other reform-minded groups helped to shape religious thought and practice in England and beyond.
