The Great Chalice of Antioch is a historical novel written by Gustavus A. Eisen. The book tells the story of a magnificent chalice that was created in Antioch during the early Christian era.

The story is set against the backdrop of the Crusades and the conflicts between the Christian and Islamic worlds.The book is filled with vivid descriptions of the historical events and characters that shaped the chalice's journey. The reader is taken on a journey through time, from the early days of Christianity to the medieval period, and beyond.The Great Chalice of Antioch is a fascinating and engaging read for anyone interested in history, religion, or the intersection of the two. It is a well-researched and beautifully written novel that brings to life the story of one of the most important religious artifacts in history.1933. The Chalice of Antioch is a unique product of the ancient silversmith's art, whose beauty needs no description. Dr. Eisen undertook the investigation of this archaeological object and as a working hypothesis, he has assumed that the traditional attribution of the New Testament book is correct and there is truth in early Christian tradition. The degree to which this hypothesis actually works may be seen within the book.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
