Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ss; Peter and Paul
The Acts begin with our Lord's Ascension, but we have no picture of this. It is the hardest of all subjects for an artist to draw; somehow, when we try it seems just a tri?e absurd to be drawing a man ?oating up into the sky, and we give it up. But those who saw Jesus ascend had no such feeling. It was all most grand and solemn to them.
This was forty days after Easter. Ten days followed during which the Christians waited quietly, as Christ had told them, for something to happen. Let us see who these Christians were and what they did.
