The story begins in A.D. 30. The precise Latin of the Romans was heard everywhere; the land was a polyglot of warring peoples. It follows the life of Simon, called Peter and later St. Peter...who laid down his fishing nets on the Sea of Galilee to follow Jesus to Gethsemane. There, he would deny Him. Yet he became the greatest of the first Christian leaders and teachers. By the author of The Robe.
