A fascinating find for collectors of esoteric literature, occult studies, and alternative Masonic history. Please review all photos for a detailed look at the physical condition of this vintage volume.
It a rare, beautiful, and absolutely fascinating work of esoteric and occult science. Within its pages, you will find a large compendium of metaphysical writings pertaining to The Freemasons, Other Realms, Mythology, The Soul, and so much more. It also discusses the lost continent of Atlantis as well as the study of the human soul and the spiritual realms. There is so much in this book that it\'s not easy for me to adequately explain it. A stunning edition overall.
