160 p. with some illus., 8°, O-Imitation-Leather with Jacket 48,00 €
Dr. Francis Israel Regardie (1907-1985) was the private secretary of Aleister Crowley. The first edition nof this book was
already published in 1932. - "The importance of the book to me was and is five-fold. 1) It provided a yardstick by wich to
measure my personal progress in the understanding of the Qabalah. 2) Therefore it can have a quivalent value to the
modern student. 3) It serves as a theoretical introduction to the Qabalistic foundation of the magical work of the Hermetic
Order of the Golden Dawn. 4) It throws considerable light on the occasionally obscure writings of Aleister Crowley. 5) It is
dedicated to Crowley, who was the Ankh-af-na--Khonsu mentioned in The Book of the Law." (p.8) - Jacket a bit dusty and
with tiny fault; few tiny marks by pencil, otherwise a good copy.

"There is a time to speak and a time to remain silent. For me, the time has come now to raise my voice in the interest of
clarifying the record of Aleister Crowley. He was one of the greatest mystics of all time, although a very complicated and
controversial person." (Foreword) - Outside little traces of use, nevertheless a good copy.

Dr. Francis Israel Regardie (i.e. Israel Regudy, 1907-1985) was from 1928 until 1937 the private secretary of Aleister
Crowley. "The Golden Dawn as system and book has been the most intensively used source for modern western occult
and magical writing [...] Certainly it is true that no other book contains so much practical working material as is brought
together in this new single volume." (Publisher`s preface) - Cutting edge of the pages little dirty and with spot; few marks by
pencil; otherwise a good copy in a probably new cover.

achieve the materialisation and rulership of princes of the spirit world." - Little knocked; few pages little folded, else a good
copy.

Austin Osman Spare (1886-1956), British graphic artist, painter and magician. In 1907 Aleister Crowley became attentive
to the artist and in 1910 Spare entered Crowley`s Order "Astrum Argenteum". But two years later he seperated of it and
was therefore titled as a black brother by Crowley. Only a few years later Crowley changed his mind and expressed an
approving opinion about Spare`s sigil-magic of Zos Kia. - Jacket knocked, little rubbed, chipped and with tiny fault; else a
good copy.
