About The Book

Description

A Jewish prince. A Roman best friend turned mortal enemy. A false accusation that destroys an entire family. And a quiet carpenter from Nazareth whose words will change the course of history forever. Will you choose vengeance — or forgiveness? When Judah Ben-Hur is betrayed by his childhood companion Messala and condemned to die as a galley slave, he survives only one purpose: revenge. His path back to Jerusalem is paved with chains, shipwrecks, blood, and the roar of the circus crowd. But on the road, again and again, he crosses paths with a stranger named Jesus of Nazareth — and discovers that the true battle is not fought in the arena. Why this edition? This is a opening piece of the text of Lew Wallace's masterpiece — the proven, best-selling American novel of the nineteenth century, which outsold every book except the Bible until Gone with the Wind. Authentic. Endorsed by generations of readers. Tested by time. Whether you fell in love with the Academy Award-winning film, are a devoted fan of The Chosen, or have always wanted to discover one of the greatest Christian historical fiction novels ever written, this is the edition for your shelf.
