Connecting with History > Volume Two Booklist > Ben Hur: A Tale of
the Christ In this classic tale, a rich Jewish prince who has endured slavery and separation from his family meets Jesus just before the Crucifixion, and his life is changed forever.
Ben Hur could be said to be the first blockbuster. When it was published in 1880, it sold over two million copies and was translated into numerous languages. It combines all the best elements of a popular epic action story against a background of authoritative historical details. Wallace's original novel has been largely forgotten now, but as this vivid reading shows, the story, together with the sweeping rhythm of the writer's prose, make it ideally suited to the audiobook.
