Referred to by Kenneth Anger who authored the very brief Foreword as a "sexual-magical treasure." Crowley's Atlantis is said to be "An account of the continent of Atlantis: the manners and customs, magical rites and opinions of its people, together with a true account of the catastrophe, so called, which ended in its disappearance" although in other writings Crowley allowed that there was more than a hint of satire in some parts of the work, whilst others were thinly-veiled metaphor. Errata slip loosely inserted. Very light toning to the endpapers, one spot and a little graying to the last couple of leaves, otherwise a tight, clean, near Fine copy in near VG dust jacket (Dust jacket a darkened, foxed and rubbed as always, with a few small chips and tears around the edges.).
