Complete and unabridged, with 59 full-page plates by William Orpen, William Morris Hunt and James Tissot. A financier arranges the discovery in Palestine of a tomb that appears to disprove the Resurrection, and Europe begins to come apart. Thorne's novel was preached on from pulpits — the Bishop of London praised it in a sermon — and sold in enormous numbers. This edition includes fifty-nine plates of paintings by William Morris Hunt, James Tissot, Maximilien Luce and others, dating from 1750 to 1927.
