    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

  • Luther Bible

    I bought this as a Christmas present for my niece who speaks, reads and writes German. She is also a Lutheran so I know she will love this present.

  • Very Pleased with Luther Bible

    Wonderful as a work of art, historical significance, and as an example of Luther's work and dedication. The additional paperback (which I believe is only available in this original version) provides terrific historical and German script notes for the reader.
