That's Anglo-Israelism, which asserts that Israel (the 10 tribes) migrated to Britain. It asserts that Ephraim is English and Manasseh is American. It proposes biblical support for Anglo-American superiority. Herbert W. Armstrong was a big proponent. The actual historical evidence is mighty thin.

It also maintains that the British royal family is directly descended from King David by way of Scotland, and that they are the rightful occupants of David's throne. If this is true, then one look at Prince Charles tells me right away that there must have been some extensive admixture.

Yes, they mentioned the Royal family in one of the books. Also, there was mention of Ephraim and Manasseh as you stated. Also, one of the books mentioned that the Assyrians took some of these tribes back to their homeland. When the Assyrians were over ran by their enemy, the tribes were released and they made their way into Europe. Still holding onto some of their symbols. Abraham had given each tribe a symbol and these are the symbols that are seen on some of the coat of arms found in Europe. I think this is where the author comes up with the Celto-Saxon Israeli relation.

Also, if I am reading these books correctly, there is a difference between Anglo-Saxon and Celto-Saxon. I think it is along the lines that Celts are Irish and come from the tribe of Dan. I can't say for sure but I think the Anglos are different in the author's mind.
