The Jesus Papers: Exposing the Greatest Cover-Up in History by Michael Baigent

3.0

2.5 stars rounded up. It reads like a well researched history drawing conclusions from well-supported documentation - except, while it does appear to be well researched, the conclusions are too often bereft of references when references are needed most. Some of Baigent's arguments are difficult to oppose - even without references and others, well, had me turning pages forward and back trying to find where his conclusions were anything more than fantastic leaps to even more fantastic conclusions. Still, it was a very interesting read I just wish he'd written it before he was 3MM pound in debt over his legal case against the DaVinci code's publishers.
