William Cleaver Wilkinson in the book "The Epic of Paul" describes the tribulation faced by Paul when held as a Roman prisoner. Paul the Apostle, commonly known as Saint Paul, was an eventual follower of Jesus (though not one of the Twelve Apostles) who professed the gospel of Christ to the first-century world. This book describes the conspiracy held by some of the Jews (of which he was once a prominent member). It is a great book for Christians.
