Publisher's Synopsis

Lost Christianities describes how most forms of early Christianity, and the sacred writings they adhered to, came to be suppressed, proscribed, destroyed - in one way or another lost. And it also tells the story of how the canon of the New Testament became the official, orthodox and sacred text for Christianity.
