The Son of the Swordmaker is set in Roman times, during the time of Christ's crucifixion. The hero, Eradmus, becomes part of the Roman invasion of England. He is captured and falls in love with Vloden, the daughter of the tribe's "king." Upon his escape, he returns to Rome, and resumes his military career. Even after he becomes the leader of the Roman troops who arrest and subsequently crucify Jesus, he never forgets the love of his life, Vloden.

Opie Percival Read (b. December 22, 1852, Nashville Tennessee; d. November 2, 1939, Chicago Illinois) was a prolific American journalist and humorist. His bibliography lists 60 published books.

Prior to 1887, Opie Read edited five separate newspapers, all in the U.S. South: the Statesville Argus (KY), the Bowling Green (KY) Pantograph, the Louisville Courier-Journal, the Little Rock (AR) Evening Post, and the Little Rock Gazette, ancestor of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. In 1882, Read founded his own humor magazine, the Arkansas Traveler, which he carried on after leaving newspaper journalism in 1887 (Wikipedia).
