Publisher's Synopsis
The Lost Tribes of Israel: Or The First of the Red Men is a book written by Charles Even and originally published in 1861. The book explores the theory that Native American tribes are descended from the lost tribes of Israel, who were exiled from their homeland and scattered across the world. Even argues that the similarities between Jewish and Native American customs, beliefs, and symbols are evidence of this connection. The book delves into the history of the lost tribes and their potential migration to the Americas, as well as the linguistic and cultural similarities between the two groups. Even's work was controversial at the time of its publication and remains a topic of debate among scholars today. This edition of the book includes an introduction by historian Ronald Sanders, providing context and analysis of Even's theories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
