We've love the 1959 movie, watch it yearly and finally decided we wanted to read an unabridged copy of the book (unabridged-not easy to find) especially because we know a descendant of Lew Wallace. Anyway, this read will be slow going for those who want a fast paced page turner. Wallace' word usage and style are those of the 1800's - but if you have patience and perseverance you will be treated to a terrific story and a narration that will really take you back to those ancient times.

A Wonderful Tale
The book is my very favorite of all the books I have ever read and I have bought some of the books to give on special occasions. This is a book that everyone needs to read in my opinion.
