Throughout ancient and biblical texts there is no record of Jesus or his whereabouts between the ages of twelve up to thirty, when his ministry began. These are known as the lost years of Jesus. This book claims to reveal those lost years. The author, a Russian journalist and war correspondent, claimed to have found these important manuscripts during his travels through Kashmir and Ladakh in 1894, in a monastery in Tibet. He has reproduced them here, in this book. After publication it was met with wide public acceptance, as well as being refuted by famed Orientalist Max Muller, who attempted to verify the author's claims without success. Today, the mainstream belief is that it is a hoax; however, a number of lengthy supporting documents can be found on the web that attacks the criticism, point by point. We invite you to read this interesting book and other related documents so that you may form an educated opinion of your own.
