“To me the most remarkable of the many stories about the Bible trade is the reason why so manv booksellers keep their stock of Bibles locked up in glass cases. It’s not really reverence—it’s not even to keep them clean —it’s to keep them safe. You see, the Bible is not only the book that sells the most, it’s the book that is stolen the most”—Eddie Ashton speaking in the 8.8.C.’s “Scottish Magazine.”
