Pearl Maiden A Tale Of The Fall Of Jerusalem

Reproduction of the original.

Reproduction of the original: Pearl-Maiden by H. Rider Haggard

Pearl-Maiden explores the story of Miriam, who was born just after the first persecution of the Christians soon after the Crucifixion and Resurrection. Although her parents didn't survive, she became a Christian and an observer of the fall of Jerusalem to Rome. The story's characters are excellently developed, and the twists and turns add to its charms.

Sir Henry Rider Haggard was an English writer of adventure novels set mostly in Africa, and a founder of the Lost World literary genre. Pearl Maiden, Haggard’s faith-fortifying novel, is a delicious blend of stirring events, captivating characters, and historical detail. It tells a story of the destruction of Jerusalem and features first-century life of Miriam, a young believer; and Marcus, the Roman officer who wishes to marry her.
