signed presentation copy by the editor
It sometimes suffers for being relatively old--it predates the famous Rider Tarot deck, and it also lacks any mention of the also now-famous Celtic Cross spread. However, MacGregor's interpretations are interesting, and often insightful as well, and he is much easier to read than Waite. On the whole, it is a short book, and in a small space he offers a decent introduction to the Tarot, including its symbolism and its related card-games, as well as its main, divinatory, use.

The present-day revival of the practice of magic owes much to the
Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the fin de siecle secret society
that rediscovered many occult traditions dating back to antiquity.
Prominent adepts ofthe Goklen Dawn, whose membersincluded W. B.
Yeats and Aleister Crowley, preserved these traditions in manuscmpts
to be circulated among initiates ofthe Order. These documents, known
as the Flying Rolls, reveal secrets of astral projection, clairvoyance,
exorcism, alchemy and other magical practices and ocult philosophy.
Many of the Hying Rolls escaped print and remained secret for
some time, only slowly being tracked down over the years. Here,
Francis King presents all the previously unpublished Flying Rolls They
are essential texts for beginners as well as advanced practitioners of
magical techniqques, and will be of great interest to any student of
Western occultism.
Francis King is a leading authority in the fields of occultism, religion,
and Western magic. He is the author of many books, inchuding Tantra:
