JESUS

From the bestselling author and acclaimed historian, a powerful portrayal of the life of Jesus

Few figures have had such an influence on history as Jesus of Nazareth.

Paul Johnson's brilliant reading offers a lively biography of the man who inspired one of the world's great religions and whole lesson still guides us in current times.

Acclaimed historian Paul Johnson's many best-selling books have been translated into dozens of languages. He writes a weekly essay for The Spectator and a monthly column for Forbes, and has also written for The Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and many other publications. His most recent titles are Churchill and Napoleon.
