Synopsis:
How much do we really know about the lives of the Twelve Apostles?
What did they do after Calvary? Where did they go?
Since the Twelve Apostles left no detailed information about themselves behind, how is it possible to gather information as to their fate? While you could search through dozens of sources and hundreds of books for information on the Apostles, C. Bernard Ruffin has collected all the data in this comprehensive and engaging book. He weaves together Scripture, Tradition, and historical documents to recreate and outline the lives of each of Christ's closest followers.
