Grand Rapids, Baker Book House Company, 1983. First Edition. Octavo, cream boards in russet jacket, 222 numbered pages. Presumed association copy, with the signature of John H. Armstrong, dated July 1984, on the ffep - though I have no provenance to this effect, this is in all likelihood the same John H. Armstrong, a former pastor, who has authored a variety of largely evangelical religious books. A fine, pristine book, in a bright, slightly roughened jacket that is better than very good, close to near fine. Bright and tight, certainly the best preserved copy I've seen. Alden's widely admired and much sought-after treatment of the Book of Proverbs, with a foreword by Haddon W. Robinson. L46n
This is a helpful and encouraging guide that helps to explain the biblical book of Proverbs. I know the author who was a good man and scholar. That always enables you to trust a book when you personally trust the author.
