| Introduction | “The General Lew Wallace Study and Museum celebrates and renews belief in the power of the individual spirit to affect American history and culture.” With these words as their mission, the General Lew Wallace Study and Museum welcomes visitors from across the nation and around the world. As the location where Lew Wallace wrote Ben-Hur and the home of the world’s largest collection of General Wallace’s personal memorabilia, the Museum is an ideal visitors’ destination for the bibliophile and the history buff alike. The Museum is owned and operated by the City of Crawfordsville Park & Recreation Department and governed by the Lew Wallace Study Preservation Society board of trustees.
