One cannot, of course, come up with a complete list of apocryphal
books, because the word means "those books not accepted in the canon";
of which there is an infinite number. One could mention the apocryphal
Gospels and Apocalypses, and thousands of other "marginal" books,
including perhaps the Book of Mormon and the writings of Mary Baker
Eddy.
