Publisher's Summary

This key to the world's esoteric traditions unlocks some of the most fascinating and closely held secrets of myth, religion, and philosophy. Unrivaled in its beauty and completeness, it distills ancient and modern teachings of nearly 600 experts. Compelling themes range from the riddle of the Sphinx and the tenets of Pythagorean astronomy to the symbolism of the pentagram, the significance of the Ark of the Covenant, and the design of the American flag.

Acclaimed by Publishers Weekly as "a classic reference, dizzying in its breadth", this remarkable resource was compiled by the founder of the Philosophical Research Society. Author Manly P. Hall examines the secrets of Isis along with arcane aspects of mystic Christianity and other religions. Fascinating surveys cover topics as diverse as Kabbalah, alchemy, cryptology, and Tarot, along with Masonry, gemology, and the identity of William Shakespeare.

Overall good

The reader stumbles a lot, throwing off the flow. Labeled chapters would be nice too.
Great book through

The narrator could not be worse

Wow. Seriously. It’s almost a bit humorous how awful the narration is. Mispronounced words with an inability to properly convey punctuation throughout. I actually thought that the file was glitchy at points! This is a real beauty.

Too bad they didn't edit the mistakes

A work of this depth and quality really deserved it! Here are a few more words, just for the count ;-)

Glitches galore

This book will have random stops and then restart a clip of audio, and it has happened so many times I am deleting it and discontinuing listening.

There needs to be some editing done to fix the bugs in the audio.

The subject matter is also presented in a way that is not as enjoyable or informative as I hoped.

Terrible quality narration

Look, this is a dense book. Don't make it more difficult by listening to this version. the narrator has appalling pronunciation and there is little quality control on the recording as there are multiple points in the first chapter where he messes up and restarts. this should be edited out. Disappointing.
