The Spear
Description
From the popular Louis de Wohl Series of historical novels about the saints, published by Ignatius Press. This panoramic novel of the last days of Christ ranges from the palaces of imperial Rome to the strife-torn hills of Judea-where the conflict of love and betrayal, revenge and redemption, reaches a mighty climax in the drama of the Crucifixion. This is the full story of the world's most dramatic execution, as it affected one of its least-known participants-the man who hurled his spear into Christ on the Cross.
Among his many successful historical novels, Louis de Wohl considered The Spear the magnum opus of his literary career. Recommended for grade 10. 1979, Ignatius Press. 400 pp.
