Summary:
"A profound and moving journey into the heart of Christianity that explores the mysterious and often paradoxical lives and legacies of the
Twelve
Apostles. Peter, Matthew, Thomas, John: Who were these men? What was their relationship to Jesus? Tom Bissell provides rich and surprising answers to these ancient, elusive questions. Not just who these men were (and weren't), but also how their identities have taken shape over the course of two millennia."--Provided by publisher.
