Author Description

This fascinating book has been out of print and highly sought after for many years since its first publication as My Rosicrucian Adventure in 1936. In this work Israel Regardie relates his own personal experience with those secret societies which have exerted such a great influence on the development of modern Occultism. Regardie lifts the cloak of mystery which has shrouded THE HERMETIC ORDER OF THE GOLDEN DAWN, THE ROSICRUCIAN FRATERNITY and THE MASONIC LODGE. From his close personal association Regardie reveals the true nature and actions of such leading Occult authorities as Aleister Crowley, S.L. MacGregor Mathers, Dr. W.W. Westcott, and Dion Fortune.
