£15.00

Charming mid-century UK hardcover reprint (September 1955) published by Peter Davies, London and printed by Novello and Company Ltd.

Features the beloved Christmas sermon by Scottish-born Presbyterian minister Peter Marshall (whose life inspired the 1955 film A Man Called Peter), with an introduction by his wife, Catherine Marshall.

Illustrated throughout in red, green, and black by renowned children's illustrator Barbara Cooney, complete with pine-tree patterned endpapers and the original pictorial dust jacket showing a black-and-white family photograph on the rear panel.
