If you have ever wondered what it would be like to be a spectator in the crowd at the Crucifixion of Christ, read this book. The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ provided the inspiration for Mel Gibson's movie The Passion of the Christ, and has been a strong influence on modern Christian spirituality. For over a century, it has attracted devout Christian readers who want to have a more concrete and explicit narrative of Jesus' suffering and death on the Cross.
