The Messianic Legacy 41 reviews Michael Baigent
Dell, 1989
An Interesting Sequel
+ Tres historias
I purchased this book with some trepidation, why? Well I wondered whether the authors really needed to write this book, particularly as they had just republished The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail, or were they simply riding the crest of the wave of publicity surrounding the court case brought by ...

The Templar Revelation: Secret Guardians of the True Identity of Christ 171 reviews Lynn Picknett, Clive Prince
Touchstone, 1998
Excellent Research
+ Doesn't attempt to "sensationalize" a preconceived contrary position + Entertaining & informative
I recently re-read this book, after seeing the authors sitting in Tom Hank's bus in the Da Vinci Code movie. It really is a superb piece of historical investigation. Shame the public didn't catch on to this one instead of Dan Brown's rip off. The key point of the book is that the real indentity of ...

The Secret Teachings of Jesus: Four Gnostic Gospels 45 reviews
Vintage, 1986
Interesting Read
+ SECRET TEACHINGS
This book is a very interesting read. At some points it is difficult to understand and one may have to reread it a couple of times. It does peek the imagination. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning about the Gnostics.

The Jesus Papers: Exposing the Greatest Cover-Up in History (Plus) 151 reviews Michael Baigent
HarperOne, 2007
An interesting read
+ Michael Baigent writes a fascinating book AGAIN!!
It's interesting how many reviewers claim that there is "abundant evidence" provided by historical personages for the existence of Jesus. Let's look at these:
Josephus: wrote a passage that mentions Christ, but scholars now agree that this passage is either a later interpolation or that it has ...
