The True Cross: A Legend Of The Church is a book written by George John Whyte-Melville and published in 1873. The book is a historical fiction novel that revolves around the legend of the True Cross, which is believed to be the cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified. The story is set in the 4th century AD and follows the journey of Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine, as she embarks on a quest to find the True Cross. Along the way, she faces many challenges and obstacles, including opposition from the Roman authorities and the pagan beliefs of the people she encounters. The book is a fascinating exploration of the power of faith, the nature of legend and the role of religion in shaping human history. It is also a powerful tale of love, sacrifice and redemption, as Helena's quest ultimately leads her to a deeper understanding of herself and her relationship with God. With its rich historical detail, engaging characters and thought-provoking themes, The True Cross is a classic work of literature that continues to captivate readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
