"The Life and Work of St Paul, by F.W. Farrar, was published by Cassell and Company Limited, London, in 1883. This substantial and eloquent volume presents one of the most respected nineteenth-century biographies of the Apostle Paul, written by the eminent theologian and Dean of Canterbury, Frederic W. Farrar. Drawing on both scripture and contemporary scholarship, Farrar traces Paul's life from his early years in Tarsus through his conversion on the road to Damascus, missionary journeys across the Roman world, and ultimate martyrdom in Rome. The text combines detailed historical context with spiritual reflection, illuminating Paul's enduring influence on Christian theology and the early Church.
Enhanced by original illustrations and coloured maps, this edition was designed to bring the biblical narrative vividly to life for Victorian readers, blending scholarship, devotion, and accessible storytelling. Despite the detached outer spine, the book remains a richly illustrated and historically significant work that embodies the elegance of Cassell's late nineteenth-century religious publishing. It would appeal to collectors of antique theological works, students of early Christianity, and admirers of F.W. Farrar's eloquent religious prose."
