The Book of Ruth - Translated from the Scriptures, Illustrated by Anonymous, Gary Fisher, Gustave Doré
One of the most beautiful -- and powerful -- of the ancient Hebrew Scriptures, the Book of Ruth tells the wonderful story of an outcast, widowed by famine, who finds love, a home, and a place in history through her special relationship with her mother in law.

Besides the main characters -- Ruth, the Moabitess; Naomi, her mother in law; and Boaz, who learns to love her; The Book of Ruth introduces us also to Ruth's sister Orpah, after whom the celebrity Oprah was named.

This edition of The Book of Ruth was translated from the Hebrew original and includes an illustration by Gustav Dore. Note that this book was written about 1,000 B.C. and is not the 1988 novel by Jane Hamilton.
