Cardinal Wiseman's incredible classic story of the Christian persecution under Emperor Diocletian in the 300s AD. Fabiola is perplexed by the new-found faith of her cousin Agnes as well as her servant, but is especially intrigued when she finds the noblest Roman soldier she knows, Sebastian, is also a Christian. In this moving description of the Roman catacombs and the captured Christians who faced cruel death with unearthly fortitude, a story of faith and renewal unfolds in the decaying Roman empire.
This is the beautiful, Victorian Illustrated edition of Fabiola. Filled with beautiful illustrations to explain references in the story, it will immerse the reader in the times of early persecution in the Church. Original 1885 Benziger Brothers reprint.
