THE PEOPLE OF THE SECRET
Book Details + Condition: The Octagon Press (London). Very scarce first edition softcover, 1985. By Ernest Scott. Softcover, 263 pages (including index). "Are biological evolution and human history directed by a hierarchy of Intelligences, the lowest level of which makes physical contact with mankind? Do invisible guardians of this planet 'seed' ideas into the earth's cultures to prepare human beings for huge steps in their development? The author suggests not only that it may be so, but that it may also be possible to recognize these 'People of the Secret.'" Chapters include: Science Fiction and the Ancient Traditions; Alchemy: The Disguised Path; Freemasons, Sufis, Initiatory Societies; Love Courts, Troubadours and Round Tables; Jewish Cabbala, the Tarot, Nostradamus; and more. Softcover is in very good condition, with minor wear to covers; publisher sticker on half-title page (with small rip to back of sticker, on page); a few old dog-eared pages; interior is clean and free of markings.
