Softcovers, bound in stapled stiff brown paper wraps with a vignette of a book in gilt on the front cover.

Bernard Brussel-Smith's wood engraving powerfully illustrates the quote from "Exodus xxiv, 12" printed on the following page: "And the Lord said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayes teach them.
