Clear and Precise Exposition of King Solomon’s Secret Procedure, Its Mysteries
and Magic Rites. Original Plates, Charms and Talismans. Translated from Ancient
Manuscripts in the British Museum, London. MacGregor Mathers was one of
the founders of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the fraternity in which
Aleister Crowley got his early magical training, and which had a profound
influence on his own occult career. De Laurence was well known for taking other
peoples’ works and reissuing them under his own name (sometimes retitling them
in the process), although in this case he has merely granted himself
editorship. This volume has the copyright date 1914 on the verso of the title
page, and the typography of the time, but it is impossible to tell the editions with all of De Laurence’s reprints. In very good condition: binding is tight and solid; minor shelf wear; slight fraying to board edges (only on top corners of front board); minor wear to front; one page of Preface has underlining, interior is otherwise clean and free of markings, with bright pages.
