In February 1864, 500 Union prisoners of war arrived at the Confederate stockade at Anderson Station, Georgia. Andersonville, as it was later known, would become legendary for its brutality and mistreatment, with the highest mortality rate--more than 30 percent--of any Civil War prison. Fourteen months later 32,000 men were imprisoned there.

Was the Civil War the greatest war in American history, or was it the biggest mistake in American history? Was the blood of more than one million men spilled over countless battlefields necessary to get rid of slavery? Was the country we called free for everyone just an idea? Was a nation born and then destroyed because of an institution that was nothing more than peculiar? Does the flag of a dead country that still flies over courthouses in the South speak for a nation?

Bogen er en overskuelig kronologi over Jesu liv, placeret inden for en rig historisk sammenhæng, der tydeligt viser den store indflydelse, som Jesu liv og historie havde på samtiden og de tidligste fortællinger om ham. Han levede. Han lærte. Han døde- Han opstod - og efter hans opstandelse fremstod en verdensreligion uden sidestykke. En tredjedel af verdens befolkning tilhører denne religion - og alligevel kender mange af os ikke de grundlæggende kendsgerninger i Jesu liv.
