Author Description

""The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ"" is a book written by Nicolas Notovitch in 1890. The book is based on Notovitch's claim that during his travels in the Himalayas, he came across a Buddhist monastery where he was shown ancient manuscripts that revealed the existence of a lost gospel that chronicled the life of Jesus Christ during his ""missing years"" between the ages of 12 and 30. Notovitch's book purports to be a translation of this gospel, which he claims was written by a Buddhist monk named Issa, who was actually Jesus Christ himself. The book details Jesus' travels to India, Tibet, and other parts of Asia, where he studied with sages and holy men and gained knowledge and wisdom that would later inform his teachings. The book has been widely criticized and dismissed by scholars as a hoax, and there is no evidence to support Notovitch's claims. However, ""The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ"" remains a fascinating and controversial work that continues to captivate readers and spark debate about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1890 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
