<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published under title: Relics of the Passion: London: Talbot, 1910.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><P>The Jews usually burned the crosses used by the Romans after executions but following Jesus' crucifixion they quickly threw the Cross in a ditch to get it out of sight before the feast of Passover. <P>That preserved the True Cross, and memory of the events preserved its location. <P>Disgusted with continued Christian veneration of the spot, pagan Roman Emperor Hadrian erected on the Cross's burial site a statue to Venus, hoping thereby to obliterate their memory. <P>It didn't work. <P>Indeed, because of the statue, when the Empire became Christian, St. Helena knew the exact spot where she would find the very Cross on which Christ died. <P>All relics from Christ's crucifixion have a similarly fascinating story, all of which are told here in this 1910 work by the enterprising Catholic investigator Charles Wall.
