APPREHENSION OF THE BIBLE. New York: Macmillan and Co., 1881. First 
American Edition. Publisher's brick cloth with gilt lettering on the 
spine; 316 pages. INSCRIBED and SIGNED on the front blank: "with sincere 
regard and all/good wishes./Matthew Arnold.--/Indianapolis, Feb. 4th 
1884." Arnold spent the latter months of 1883 and the first months of 
1884 touring the United States for the first time and giving a series of 
lectures in various cities. It was on this tour that he inscribed this 
book which is Arnold's attempt to show the ways secular literature and 
religious texts intersect. Books inscribed by Arnold are fairly scarce. 
Tightly bound; wear to tips of spine which is a little darkened. Very
