From the Preface:—
The majority of the newspaper published in the five continents of the world and most of the millions of letters written by people of every race are dated from the birth of a boy in a country town fon the eastern fringe of the Ro ian Empire...
"There can hardly be a more fas ing or a more important thing to know than the life and personality of this man from whose birth we date everything: what did and said and was "After coming back sixteen years ago for the first ime from the land where Jesus lived, I started to try to write down the story of Jesus' life so that it should be at least real to myself. tried also to.set it down in language real and living for a boy or irl who has never even read or heard yything about him.... In the attempt (to do so) I have lived for months at a time and travelled tone year after another in the land where he lived, and have followed the tracks along which Jesus walked in Palestine.
T have tried through these years to feel and think my way into the life that he lived, the truth that he taught, and, most of all, what he himself was in relation to the Li of the people under the Roman Empire in his day. This has not only thrown light on many things that were before obscure and difficult for me to understand, but it has helped to make the drama of his life so anth Hing and con vineing to myself that I could not but try to set it down."
