Lost Christianities by Ehrman
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.
"An illuminating book" * Noel Rooney, Fortean Times *
