      I dunno. Hopefully, they’re getting 7-year textbook quality binding and stuff. But $60 is kinda steep for a text that’s in the public domain.

      (At least it might be in the public domain… Which translation is the government sanctioned one, anyway? Translations can be copyrighted.)

          Yeah. $60 is pretty steep for KJV. There are better translations available, but KJV would at least integrate better with the kind of British literature I had to read in school.

          For a lot of that stuff, you have to know your Bible stories to understand it, and if you didn’t hear those at a religious institution, you were at a disadvantage.

      Bulk rate and shipping costs, though?
