Mary Magdalene: The Life and Legacy of the Woman Who Witnessed the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus

Some of the main points of the book include:

Mary was also known as Miriam, her Hebrew name.
She probably died in Turkey.
Seeing the apparition of Jesus was linked to authority and leadership.
Mary was not married to Jesus.
Women of that time were considered second class citizens.
Jesus' message was geared towards the peasant class.
He taught mostly in small towns.
Mary probably came from a town that had a fishing industry.
Mary's demons (that were removed by Jesus) might have been medical difficulties.
There was a struggle for who would lead the early church.
The importance of Mary Magdalene was lessened as time went on and men took over.
Pope Gregory I made a major put-down of Mary.
There are very few inarguable facts about her.

The book is quite interesting.
