From the modern intrigue of conspiracy theories to the immense
popularity of The Da Vinci Code, the fascination with secret
societies-and their arcane knowledge and power-has never been so
rampant. This monumental, encyclopedic work details the initiations
and ceremonies, the codes and customs of mysterious organizations
from ancient times to the modern world. First published in 1875 and
completely revised and updated in 1897, this remains the
definitive, authoritative guide to secret societies... and to the
spiritual evolution of humanity they represent. Originally
published in two volumes and here presented in an omnibus edition,
this captivating work delves into the rites and mysteries of: the
Magi and the Mithraics Egyptian priests and kings Chinese
metaphysics the Druids Cabbalism and Gnosticism Alchemy the Mafia
the Illuminati the Freemasons and much more. British historian and
author CHARLES WILLIAM HECKETHORN (c. 1826-1902) was born in
Switzerland but emigrated to England as a child. Among his writings
are a novel, a book of verse, translations of Scandinavian
folklore, and the travelogues Italian Lights and Shadows, London
Souvenirs, and London Memories.
