Quo Vadis (Classics Library (Barbour Bargain))

First-century Rome is the setting for Henryk SienkiewiczÆs classic novel, a story of love, intrigue, and Emperor NeroÆs hideous persecution of Christians. Rich in historical detail, the story follows the experience of Vinicius, an arrogant Roman nobleman who sets his heart on beautiful Princess Lygia. Her strong Christian beliefs at first frustrate, then conquer Vinicius, who must ultimately save her from barbaric Roman persecution. In this moving story, ChristÆs church is battered but never defeated-and ultimately will rule the world.Henryk Sienkiewicz is the author of 'Quo Vadis (Classics Library (Barbour Bargain))', published 2000 under ISBN 9781577487777 and ISBN 157748777X.
