This is ironic, given that when Wallace began writing the book, he was not very religious. However, his extensive research into the Holy Land and the Bible brought him to the conviction that while his own book was a work of fiction, the Good Book was not. 20th century readers will recognize Ben Hur more from the 1950's movie, and might not even be aware that it had first been a book. Typically, the movie isn't as good as the book, but the movie is also an American classic. Nonetheless, the book's attention to historical detail and its glimpse into America at a particular point in time gives modern readers deeper insight into both Christianity and the United States in the 19th century. This edition is unabridged and faithfully reflects the version as originally published in 1880.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lew Wallace\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Suzeteo Enterprises\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 454\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.25d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781645941187","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Lew Wallace \/ Hardcover \/ English","offer_id":47699003277469,"sku":"9781645941187","price":58.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_68de0f38-26e0-4108-856c-f6d93231c2aa.jpg?v=1772695430","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/ben-hur-a-tale-of-the-christ-the-unabridged-original-1880-edition-9781645941187","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
