Secrets From the Lost Bible (2004 publication)

"Readers who want to know about the Jewish and Christian writings left out of the Bible--what they say, who probably wrote them and why they were probably excluded--will find entertaining answers in Secrets from the Lost Bible. Kenneth Hanson even provides useful time lines summarizing such details as the language in which each text was originally written, what language it exists in today, the probable time of its composition, and more. He also opens up these often strange and cryptic texts, pulling forward for the reader a message that the author of each likely intended to convey. If you are at all curious about what was banned from the Bible and why, you'll be something of an expert once you read Kenneth Hanson's book. (Speaking of "banned from the Bible," Dr. Hanson was one of the experts interviewed for the History Channel documentary of that name.)"
