The First Book of Adam and Eve

by Rutherford Platt

Overview

The Forgotten Books of Eden are a collection of the lost writings and omissions from the Bible. Although, they are considered by many scholars to be part of the "Pseudepigrapha," a collection of historical biblical works thought to be fiction they were not included in the compilation of the Holy Bible. The First Book of Adam and Eve details the life and times of Adam and Eve after they were expelled from the garden to the time that Cain kills his brother Abel. It tells of Adam and Eve's first dwelling - the Cave of Treasures; their trials and temptations; Satan's many apparitions to them; the birth of Cain, Abel, and their twin sisters; and Cain's love for his beautiful twin sister, Luluwa, whom Adam and Eve wished to join to Abel.

About the Author

Rutherford Hayes Platt, Jr. (11 August 1894, Columbus, Ohio - 28 May 1975, Boston) was an American nature writer, photographer, and advertising executive.
Platt served in WW I as a lieutenant in Battery F, Three Hundred Twenty-Third Field Artillery and, with McDonald H. Riggs, wrote a history of his unit.[2] He received his bachelor's degree from Yale in 1918.[1] In the early 1920s he was employed on the editorial staffs of The World's Work and of Doubleday Page & Company. He then became a corporate officer of Platt-Forbes, Inc., an advertising agency which represented several food and industrial companies, including Chance Vought Aircraft Corporation. In the mid‐1950s he became president of Platt Productions Educational Films, specializing in nature films.[1]
He attended classes at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and by 1930 had become keenly interested in nature and, in particular, photography of plant life. For many years, Mr. Platt's two-page spread of color photographs of mushrooms and other forms of fungi appeared in the "Mushrooms" article of the World Book Encyclopedia; some of these images also appeared in an article on mushrooms that he wrote for the August 28, 1944 issue of Life magazine
