The Decian Persecution is a book written by John A. F. Gregg, which won the Hulsean Prize Essay for 1896. The book is a historical account of the Decian persecution of Christians, which took place during the rule of the Roman Emperor Decius in the mid-third century AD. The author examines the causes and effects of the persecution, as well as the responses of the Christian community to the persecution. The book is based on extensive research of primary sources, including Christian and pagan literature, inscriptions, and archaeological evidence. The author provides a detailed analysis of the political and social context of the persecution, as well as the religious beliefs and practices of both the Christians and the Romans.
