From its very first page to its last, this book will hold your attention and be very difficult to put down. Ed Martin tells of his first-hand quest for information about Jesus' "lost" years in India undertaken while he was in the Peace Corps in Afghanistan. His investigations confirm that the traditions are still very much alive that place the young Jesus in India for many years, with his having traveled there and back to Palestine along the Silk Road route. Interspersed with Martin's findings are his own interesting experiences, which include many photographs and scenic views from his mountaineering trips. During this quest Martin learns about the Talmud of Jmmanuel document, which gives the true story behind the ministry and teachings of the man known as Jmmanuel (alias Jesus), and allows us to understand the origins of Christianity. The book contains 8 chapters and 48 photos.

I found this book to be extremely fascinating and well written. Ed Martin draws you into his personal journey, openly sharing his very human feelings, discoveries and excitement. He writes with a genuine warmth that makes you wish you were traveling along with him, not only to share the experience but to hear him tell you first hand about his life. His travels through Afghanistan and India in search of more information about Jmmanuel's (known to us as Jesus) years spent in India are pure adventure. He intersperses tales of his unusual and touching experiences growing up. Great photos compliment the story and Ed's love of travel and freedom surely make him a King of Kravelers as well.

This was an interesting adventure book, I couldn't put it down, and I highly recommend it. One of my favorite parts of the book deals with the book "Talmud Jmmanuel" which I had the opportunity to read a few years ago. If your into real Adventure Stories, UFO's and Jesus's(Jmmanuel) Lost Years, then this book is for you.
