1851545j0915Philadelphia: Daniels & Smith. Good. 1851. Third American Edition. Hardcover. "John Wilson 1799 - 1870 was a self educated man. In 1840 he published the first edition of this book in which he claimed the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel made their way from the Near East across the continent of Europe to the British Isles. He believed the Northern European people to be descended from the Ten Lost Tribes with the people of Britain being the Tribe of Ephraim. He relied upon philological 'evidence' of English Scottish and Irish words that were similar to Hebrew words." - Wikipedia. "If the view maintained in Mr. Wilson's Lectures be true it is a subject of deep interest to us all; for in that case the inhabitants of the United States are a part of the 'Lost Tribes of Israel' and the literal posterity of Jacob; and particularly are the Anglo-Saxons of the posterity of Ephraim the youngest son of Joseph." - Preface. iv 237 pp. Index.
