BUDDHISM IN THAILAND B. E. 2500 [cover title]. Field Marshal P. Pibulsonggram, Prime Minister of Thailand and other members of the Cabinet in collaboration with the Thai people have caused this album to be published to promote and propagate Buddhism & to commemorate the auspicious occasion of the twenty-fifth Buddhism century. May 12-18 BE 2500 (1957). No place or printer [Bangkok]. 1957.

Oblong large folio (54 x 37 cm). Original brown cotton-covered boards held together with metal studs (one missing), ornamented with stitching in silk, illustrated and lettered in silver, patterned paste-downs; pp. [28, the final two blank], highly illustrated, including after colour photography, all pages separated by tissue guards, printed on strong glossy card (playing card material?); covers a little dusty and lightly rubbed, occasional mainly marginal spotting internally, otherwise very good.

This is the extremely rare celebration of Siddhartha Gautama in a splendid book production, issued in Bangkok with text in Thai, English, and French.

Promulgated by the Indian Emperor Ahsoka, Buddhism had arrived in Thailand in the third century BCE, and developed its distinctive shape known as Theravada School. The Piprahwa relics of Buddha had been given to Rama V (the King of Siam) a couple of years after their discovery in 1898.

Beautiful Retelling of the Christmas Story
Format: Hardcover
I've really appreciated reading from The First Nations Version over the last couple of years, and I'm excited for this book to make it easier to share with a younger audience! One of the things I appreciate about the FNV is how well it flows as a story, and this picture book is no different. It transitions smoothly from the Luke portion to Matthew. The illustrations are lovely watercolors and give me new imagination for Jesus coming for all people. I already bought copies for my nephews, and I'm looking forward to giving them to them for the Christmas season.

Native American telling of the Nativity
Format: Hardcover
Intriguing. Told through Native American thought. I've shared it with others who in turn have purchased it for their grandchildren. Led me to purchase the New Testament translated by the same person.

Wow.
Format: Hardcover
Not only did Terry Wildman knock the retelling out of the park, the artists created a visually stunning representation of the story. I am in awe and can’t wait to find worthy applications of this book.

The familiar story of Jesus through the lens of a First Nations storyteller. It is beautiful and brought me to tears. I can’t wait to read it to my kids.
