Ben-Hur by Lew Wallace

Jewish Prince Judah Ben-Hur of Judea is unjustly condemned for an attack on the Roman Governor by his best friend, Messala, a Roman Tribune. He becomes a slave for years, from the deadly galleys of the Roman to the track of the Great Circus, only to race his chariot into the halls of Roman Royalty and finally seek his revenge against Messala for his years of misery, and for the false imprisonment of his mother and sister. His story is parrelleled with the rise and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
