The Seventh Shrine - Trade Edition

Chadwick Library Press is pleased to announce a newly revised edition of Orland Bishop’s epic poem The Seventh Shrine: Heart Cognitions on the African Spiritual Journey: From the Middle Passage to the Mountaintop.

This edition was designed under the guidance of Martino Mardersteig, of Verona, Italy, in Garamond MM version and Calibri font. The setting and printing is by Opero, also of Verona, on Ivory Smooth paper, and the binding is by Ruggero Rigoldi in Monza, Italy.

This edition consists of 750 copies, 150 of which are bound in full leather (numbered 1–100 and 50 unnumbered, out of commerce).

The first edition of The Seventh Shrine was printed in 2017 by Lindisfarne Books (an imprint of SteinerBooks / Anthroposophic Press).

"Creation and manifestation require laws. Principles determine how things are formed and how they are manifested. This process of giving form and purpose to a reality is called the Word."
