''Alypius of Tagaste: A Tale of the Early Church'' is a historical novel written by Annie Webb and published in 1799. The book tells the story of Alypius, a young man born in the city of Tagaste in North Africa during the fourth century AD. Alypius grows up in a pagan family but becomes interested in Christianity after meeting a group of Christians in his youth. He eventually converts to Christianity and becomes a disciple of St. Augustine, one of the most influential theologians of the early Christian church. The novel follows Alypius as he navigates the challenges of being a Christian in a pagan society, including persecution, social ostracism, and personal struggles with temptation and doubt. Along the way, he encounters a cast of characters including fellow Christians, pagan philosophers, and Roman officials. Through Alypius’ story, the book explores themes of faith, morality, and the clash of cultures between Christianity and paganism in the early years of the church. Overall, ''Alypius of Tagaste'' is a compelling and insightful work of historical fiction that offers a unique perspective on the early Christian church and its challenges.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
