About

Brooke Foss Westcott (1825–1901) was a British theologian who held the position of Bishop of Durham from 1890 until his death. First published in 1912, as the second edition of an 1879 original, this volume presents the complete text of the Book of Psalms arranged by Westcott 'so as to ensure an intelligent musical rendering of each clause of the separate verses'. The text was revised and edited for its second edition by the British organist and composer of hymns Arthur Henry Mann (1850–1929). This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the Psalms, choral music and Church history.
