Beautifully crafted and presented, A King James Christmas is sure to

the adoration of the Magi, the presentation of Jesus in the temple, and
the flight into Egypt. Also included is the inspiring Sermon on the
Mount. Fully illustrated with reproductions of paintings, sculptures,
illuminated manuscripts, and stained glass windows from across the
globe, A King James Christmas is a feast for the eye and a remarkable
celebration of the spirit of Christmas.
