WALTON, Mrs. O. F. — A PEEP BEHIND THE SCENES

Chicago, IL Bible Institute Colportage pp. 125, ads.,12mo,,,The Bible Institute Colportage Association was founded in 1894 by D. W. Moody of the Moody Bible Institute fame. Dwight Moody was an evangelist and businessman who, in 1886, founded the MBI as an institute of Christian education. Our offering is one in a series of similar publications, directed at encouraging young people to stay on the straight and narrow path, and to avoid the temptations of sin. The author, Amy Catherine Walton, was a British writer of Christian children's and teenage books. This title was first published in England in 1877, and concerns a young girl, Rosalie, who works in a travelling theatre company. It is staple-bound in illustrated card covers, and the text is printed on inferior stock. Notwithstanding, our copy shows only minor shelf wear, and is quite clean and tightly-bound; overall, in very good condition. No date of publication is shown, but WorldCat suggests 1937. black-&-white illustrations
