Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly right tail corner. Tear to tail back cover near spine, now covered with book tape. Interior and binding are still very good.

Winner of the 2019 NSW Premier’s History Award: Australian History Prize

In this surprising and revelatory history of the Bible in Australia, Meredith Lake gets under the skin of a text that’s been read, wrestled with, preached and tattooed, and believed to be everything from a resented imposition to the very Word of God.

The Bible in Australia explores how the Bible has played a contested but defining role in this country in the hands of Bible-bashers, immigrants, suffragists, evangelists, unionists, writers, artists and Indigenous Australians. (back cover)
