The Romance of Sorcery

Description

The Romance of Sorcery is the only nonfiction book Sax Rohmer wrote. He was thirty when it was published, and by then he was a profound student of things occult. In this book, he comes to the conclusion—in a very sane and reflective way—that the occult contains a great deal of truth which we can find only by the occult path. Sorcery is for Sax Rohmer a synonym for magic; he believes that the great magical tradition comes to us from Egypt; and he believes that this magic, rightly understood and practiced, brings about mental and physical results which are very valuable for the human race.
