Well Illustrated with rare photos and drawings. Issued by Fulgur Limited, in cooperation with Kenneth Grant, to commemorate the centenary of the reception of “The Book of the Law” by Crowley in Cairo in 1904. Also includes a facsimile of the Chinese visiting card, sometimes employed by Crowley, and a rare photographic portrait of Crowley from the 1940s, both only in the Grant collection.

This intimate memoir of Aleister Crowley covers the latter years of World War Two and Crowley’s settling in to his last abode at Netherwood in Hastings.

Kenneth Grant, who was Crowley’s friend and disciple, captures the haunting interpenetration of the magical and the mundane which colors the life of this man who was sometimes testy and demanding sometimes impish sometimes incredibly wise.

This is a book for anyone who is fascinated by this modern Mage.
