Eliphas Levi and the Kabbalah

A masterful account of liphas L vi, one of the most celebrated Kabbalistic authors of all times.The influence L vi exerted on such esoteric movement leaders as A.E. Waite; Madame Blavatsky; Papus; Aleister Crowley; Rudolf Steiner; Max Heindel; H. Spencer Lewis; Paul Foster Case and others is explored as well as remarkable insights into L vi's life and times.One entire chapter, devoted to Masonic legend Albert Pike, analyzes Pike's "Morals and Dogma" revealing entire sections Pike took verbatim from the works of L vi. This is a powerful and essential book by a respected Masonic and esoteric scholar.
