Description
Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ by Lew Wallace is well known as a captivating story of betrayal and revenge, adventure and redemption set during the life of Christ, but the book itself is somewhat archaic and difficult to read. In this updated version, Carol Wallace, the great-great-granddaughter of Lew Wallace, has set about making his book accessible to modern readers through revisions, abridgements, and contemporary language. It includes helpful maps, 8 pages of full-color pictures from the 2016 movie, and the true story behind the writing of the original. This revised edition of Ben-Hur renews the excitement of the popular epic for the current generation, as well as for generations to come. 420 pgs, pb. ~Rachel E.
