Título: THE DRAMA OF THE LOST DISCIPLES
Autor: JOWETT, GEORGE FIUSDALE
Año: 1966
Género: HISTORIA Y MITOLOGÍA
Formato: PDF

A facinating account of the spread of Christianity to Britain from as early as AD 36-37 and from Britain to Rome through the members of the British Royal Family in exile and their relationship with the Apostle Paul.

This book purports to trace several of Christ's disciples and other associates, including Joseph of Arimathea, St. Paul, St. Simon, and even his mother Mary, to Britain, where they founded a Christian church which predates, and therefore has precedence over, the Roman Catholic Church.

The book also espouses British Israelism, arguing that the Welsh and English are descended from the so-called “Lost tribes of Israel”, and claiming that they preserved their genetic and religious purity more assiduously than the Jews.

Theories based on Jowett's work are popular on the internet, and among British Israelites and adherents of the Christian Identity movement. The book is written in readable style. He cites classical historians, early church fathers, medieval and early modern writers.
