The second legend is that of St. Joseph of Arimathea, a biblical figure who is said to have brought Christianity to Britain and who is believed to have visited Glastonbury in the 1st century AD.The book delves into the history and mythology surrounding these two figures, examining the various legends and traditions associated with them.
