The Masonic Magician

More about the book

The narrative centers on Count Alessandro Cagliostro, whose conviction in the magical powers of his Egyptian Rite of Freemasonry led to both fame and peril. His travels culminated in his arrest by the Inquisition in 1789, where he faced charges of heresy. This account provides the first English translation of his rite and critiques the accusations against him, portraying him as a misunderstood visionary rather than a fraud. The authors present new documentary evidence, highlighting the ongoing relevance of his teachings and the enduring hostility towards Freemasonry.
