Lew Wallace: Collected Works showcases the profound literary talents of a man whose contributions transcended mere storytelling. This anthology encompasses Wallace's diverse writings, from the historical novel Ben-Hur, which intricately weaves themes of redemption and faith within the context of Roman imperialism, to various works reflecting his rich engagement with themes of morality, governance, and the human condition.

This collection invites readers to explore not only the narrative's action-packed sequences but also the philosophically engaging dialogues that echo the moral dilemmas of his time.
