Additional Notes
Israel Regardie was an influential twentieth-century occult writer best known for his writings on ceremonial magic and his association with the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn tradition. This revised 1975 edition preserves the wonderfully distinctive visual character of vintage Samuel Weiser occult publishing.

A unique find and purr-fectly peculiar.
