To The Lions: A Tale Of The Early Christians is a historical fiction novel written by Alfred John Church and published in 1889. The story is set in ancient Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero, and follows the lives of a group of early Christians who are persecuted for their beliefs. The main character, Marcus, is a young Roman soldier who becomes involved with the Christians after he falls in love with a woman named Lydia. As Marcus learns more about the teachings of Jesus and the Christian faith, he becomes torn between his loyalty to Rome and his newfound beliefs. The novel explores themes of faith, love, and persecution, and offers a vivid portrayal of life in ancient Rome. It is a gripping and emotional story that sheds light on a fascinating period in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
