The Empress Helena, mother of Constantine the Great, made the historic
pilgrimage to Palestine, found pieces of wood from the true Cross, and built
churches at Bethlehem and Olivet. Her life coincided with one of the great
turning-points of history: the recognition of Christianity as the religion of
the Roman Empire. The enormous conflicting forces of the age, and the
corruption, treachery, and madness of Imperial Rome combine to give Evelyn Waugh
the theme for one of his most arresting and memorable novels.
