Jerusalem Conquered G A Henty

This story takes place in the Holy Land in the year 70 A. D. The Roman legions are on their way to conquer and seize the Holy City of Jerusalem. No one expected this arduous, cruel, and costly immense enterprise to happen. Many devoted lives on both sides were lost and the suffering from this event was tremendous. Roman Knights, soldiers, and the Jewish people lost everything they owned including their lives for this Holy cause. We weave into this true record the admirable and attractive story of Josephus. This book tells of the troubles in the district of Tiberias, the long march of the legions, the brutal sieges of Jotapata, Gamala, and finally of the Holy City of Jerusalem. It tells of the lad who becomes the leader of a guerilla band of patriots and the brave and heroic battles they fought for the Holy temple. Our story then finishes in Galilea where our hero's fantastic adventure comes to an end after spending a brief time in uncomfortable slavery in Alexandria, Egypt. This story was published by the author so this essential part of our history would never be forgotten!
