Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible by the Rev. John Brown, Illustrated, 1880
Located in Colorado Springs, CO
Brown’s Self-Interpreting Bible. The Holy Bible, Containing the Old and New Testaments,  According to the Authorized Versions. With an Introduction: Marginal References and Readings;  Explanatory Notes and Reflections. By the Rev. John Brown, of Haddington. And Many Thousand Additional Notes by the Rev. Henry Cooke, D.D., LL.D., President, Assembly’s College, Belfast. Re-Edited, with Considerable Additions by the Rev. J. L. Porter, D.D., LL.D., Professor of Biblical Criticism, Assembly’s College, Belfast. Illustrated by Historical Designs and Scenes from Bible Lands. London: The Gresham Publishing Company, circa 1880s. Large quarto, with original full leather carved and gilt tooled boards, all edges gilt, and metal clasps. Presented with a custom-made archival clamshell box with gilt tooling. Presented is a beautifully restored and exquisitely bound Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible. Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible was first published in 1778 in two volumes in Edinburgh. The Self-Interpreting Bible was Reverend Brown's most significant work and it remained in print well into the twentieth century. Although undated, this family bible was published by The Gresham Publishing Company, in London, circa 1880. Reverend John Brown (1722-1787) was a Scottish Minister of the Gospel at Haddington. He wrote numerous works on the bible, including The Dictionary of the Bible, A General History of the Christian Church, and Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible, as seen here. The design of the Self-Interpreting Bible, Brown explained in the original preface, was “to present the labours of the best commentators in a manner that might best comport with the ability and leisure of the poorer and labouring part of mankind, and especially to render the oracles of God their own interpreter.” Thus, the work contains a thorough history, chronology, geography, and summary, as well as explanatory notes and reflections, on the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments. As this was printed as a “self-interpreting” bible, many of these notes occur in the margins, next to the pertaining scripture. This bible is further elucidated by upwards of eight thousand explanatory and critical notes by the Reverend Henry Cooke, D.D., LL.D., a minister of the Presbyterian Church and President of Assembly’s College in Belfast. It was further edited and notated by Reverend J. L. Porter, D.D., LL.D., a Professor of Biblical Criticism at Assembly’s College in Belfast. A publisher’s advertisement for Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible was printed in the January-July 1880 issue of The American Bookseller journal. The advertisement claims, “Brown’s Self-Interpreting Bible is widely and most favorably known on both sides of the Atlantic. It is pre-eminently A Family Bible, suitable alike for all the members of the household and particularly Helpful in explaining difficult passages, and admirably adapted to promote a Devotional spirit. Also, its unusually Clear Type makes it an excellent Book for Pulpit use...

Newfoundland and St. Pierre & Miquelon: Early 19th Century French Map
Located in Langweer, NL
The map is titled "Île et Banc de Terre-Neuve avec les Îles St. Pierre et Miquelon", depicting Newfoundland and the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon. It is from the Petit Atlas National series. Features: - The map is divided into two sections: 1. The left side shows Newfoundland (Terre-Neuve) and its surrounding waters, including important locations such as the Île du Cap Breton and Grand Bank fishing areas. 2. The right side focuses on St. Pierre and Miquelon, a French overseas territory near Newfoundland. - Hand-colored outlines mark the territories, with color distinctions for the different islands. - Administrative divisions and key geographic features, such as capes, bays, and towns, are labeled on the map. Here the text translated: Here is the translation of the text from French to English: **NOTICE.** The islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon, the only remaining French possession in this part of America since the loss of Canada, are located a few miles from the southern coast of Newfoundland, which belongs to the English. Their relatively fertile soil is broken up by hills that give rise to small streams. **Grande Miquelon**, the northernmost of the two islands, has a circumference of about 9 to 10 leagues. It offers a convenient port for fishing boats. **Petite Miquelon**, to the south of Grande Miquelon, has a circumference of about 6 leagues. It is well-watered and well-wooded. **Saint Pierre**, to the south-southwest of the two other islands, presents a somewhat similar appearance but is devoid of trees. Although it is the smallest of the three islands, it is the most important due to the size of its harbor, which can accommodate 30 to 40 ships of various sizes, and because of its favorable coastline for the preparation, preservation, and export of cod. On its eastern coast, at the bottom of a beautiful bay, lies the town of Saint Pierre, the only notable settlement on the three islands. It is the residence of a naval officer who, under the title of Commander, governs the colony. The permanent population is about 2,000 souls, of which 800 reside in Saint Pierre. However, sailors come to the islands from the coasts of Brittany and Normandy during the cod fishing season on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. In 1833, it was estimated that about 14,000 sailors were employed in this fishery, and the purchase of supplies required by the colony was valued at over one million francs. --- This translation reflects the original notice describing the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon, with details about their geography, population, and economic activities related to the fishing industry. Historical Context: - This map is part of a collection meant to showcase France's overseas colonies and territories, including the small but significant St. Pierre and Miquelon, which has been under French control for centuries and was a critical fishing and trading hub. - The Petit Atlas National series was typically published in the early 19th century, and this map likely dates from the same period, around 1815–1820. People searching for maps or information about Newfoundland and the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon use the following keywords: 1. Newfoundland map...
