Sobre este item
Very rare, first edition. Bible for the Lisu nationality who are a minority living in a southwestern mountain area in China. This book is of very interesting because Lisu has only oral language but not written language. This Lisu written language was invented and designed by the missionary writer of this book for the nationality by combining both oriental and western languages. However, this written language disappear after Chinese Communist Government got power in 1949 when they began to spread Chinese Characters in the area.
Title from verso t.p. Has also a Chinese title page as shown because it is published in Shanghai, China.
136 pages ; 20 cm. A little wear on covers, near fine in total.
