This Holy Bible belonged to Leslie Weatherhead. It was a gift and is inscribed with his name and the date '1940' on the front page. Weatherhead's annotations can be found throughout. Although Weatherhead was a (Wesleyan) Methodist, his views were sometimes at odds with conventional Christian beliefs - such as a Virgin birth, or the existnce of a Holy Trinity - and he was often regarded as a rebel.

From the private collection and archive of Leslie D. Weatherhead. See also various other objects with a Weatherhead connection in the Online Collection.
