The Seven Steps to Power. A Study of Customs, of Beliefs, of Traditions of People in Various Ages; The Sequel to But Bigger and More Amazing "7 Keys to Power!"
Arlington, Texas: Dorene Publishing Co., ND (1990s?). Fifth Printing. Softcover. Octavo. 160pp + (viiipp adverts). Original printed card wrappers. Louis de Clermont (more commonly Lewis De Claremont) was the pseudonym of an unidentified American author who wrote this and a number of other popular occult titles in the 1930s and 1940s including "The Ancient's Book of Magic", "The Ancient Book of Formulas", and "Legends of Incense, Herb, and Oil Magic". This work is broadly divided into seven "chapters": on Psychic Power, Black Magic; Planetary Power; the Secret Power of Numbers, the Magic Power of Prophecy; Ancient Magical Beliefs in the Power of Stones, Jewels and Gems; Ancient Magical Beliefs in the Power of Herbs, Roots, Flowers. Rather cheap production values. This edition has the copyright date 1945, but is obviously a much more recent printing. Front wrapper and first few leaves chipped at head of spine (almost certainly a production flaw), otherwise a tight, clean VG+ copy. Item #60616
