details...

Pictures from Error’s Chains: How Forged and Broken by Frank S. Dobbins, with Isaac Hollister Hall (1837 – 1896) and Samuel Wells Williams (1812 – 1884); I have the thirty-eigth edition, from 1884.

See the Title Page for the full title. This is an example of a genre of books illustrating religions of the world and religious practices from history, often somewhat fancifully, supposedly so people could see how bad they were.
