Alice Lettice Bell was a well known English author of children's Bible story books during the early 1900s. She wrote many Bible story books for young readers, including Bible Battles, The Boiling Cauldron, A Famous Fisherman, The Lost Garden, and others. Jessica Erskine has illustrated both this volume and its companion, "Bible Battles." This is the second in a series of volumes to be published by Homeway Press which will eventually reprint the entire Lettice Bell Library.
