The Story of Mary Jones and Her Bible is a historical non-fiction book written by Mary Emily Ropes in 1892. The book tells the true story of a young Welsh girl named Mary Jones who lived in the late 18th century. Mary was a devout Christian who had a strong desire to own her own copy of the Bible so she could read it for herself. However, at the time, Bibles were not readily available and were very expensive. Mary saved up her money for six years until she finally had enough to purchase a Bible from a distant town. She walked 25 miles barefoot to obtain her prized possession. The book goes on to detail the impact that owning a Bible had on Mary's life and how it influenced her faith. The story of Mary Jones became well-known and inspired the founding of the British and Foreign Bible Society. The book serves as a testament to the power of faith and determination, and the importance of access to religious texts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
