Reviews

This new edition, painstakingly recreated in its original form, brings the arcane writings of Manly P. Hall and the accompanying ornate illustrations to a modern audience. * Creative Review *
The greatest knowledge of all time should be available not only in the one-shilling editions in small type and shabby binding, but in a book that would be a monument, not merely a coffin. * Manly P. Hall *
One of the most complex and thoroughgoing works ever to catalogue the esoteric wisdom of antiquity. * New Dawn *
