''A Christian But A Roman'' is a historical fiction novel written by Maurus Jokai and published in 1900. The story is set in ancient Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero and follows the life of a Christian man named Marcus. Despite his faith, Marcus is a loyal Roman citizen who serves in the army and rises to become a high-ranking official in Nero’s court. However, as tensions between Christians and the Roman government escalate, Marcus is faced with a difficult decision: to remain loyal to Rome or to stand up for his Christian beliefs. The novel explores themes of faith, loyalty, and personal conviction in the face of adversity. Jokai’s vivid descriptions of ancient Rome and its political and social climate provide a rich backdrop for the story. Overall, ''A Christian But A Roman'' is a compelling tale of one man’s struggle to reconcile his faith with his loyalty to his country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
