The Lost Mary

"Tabor restores her voice, her faith, her motherhood, and, most of all, her humanity, in this groundbreaking portrait that challenges everything we thought we knew about the origins of Christianity." -Reza Aslan, author of Zealot
Mary, mother of Jesus, is the best known - and least known - woman in history. Revered and worshipped by millions, she remains a figment of the imagination, the ethereal subject of Raphaels and Botticellis, bathed in heavenly light, too virginal and too pure to move among us.
But what about the real Mary?
In The Lost Mary, renowned historian James D. Tabor lifts the veil on the life of Mary - and her revolutionary life as the matriarch of the Jesus movement.
