Amazing story of Lew Wallace, Union General during American Civil War, author of Ben Hur--

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben-Hur:_A_Tale_of_the_Christ All written from library research, some at the Library of Congress. I was much struck by the theological discussions of the Three Kings in the desert in Part One. Just amazing. This just shows, how classics become classics. So amazed it was written so long ago. 9-2-2017
