Your review mentioned Hastings was an important editor of the early 19th century. He died in 1922, the 20th century, so I doubt he had any affect on the early 19th century.

For the price and the age, you want a little too much. Now if you include the long-standing community pricing volumes of the multi-volume Dictionary of the Bible as well as the Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, I'll be all over this offer. Until then, I'll be working on the paper copies providing ballast on my library shelves.
