Exploring the concepts of the soul and reincarnation, this work reflects the teachings of the Ancient and Mystic Order Rosae Crucis (AMORC), founded by Lewis, who was also a pioneer in psychical research. The book presents a blend of philosophical and mystical practices aimed at awakening human potential. Lewis, with a rich background in occult studies, established a correspondence course system to disseminate these teachings. This reprint preserves the original 1930 edition, highlighting the historical significance of Lewis's contributions to modern Rosicrucian thought.

The most famous compendium of information on the occult and the first comprehensive work of its kind, this volume originally appeared in 1920. Subtitled "A Compendium of Information on the Occult Sciences, Occult Personalities, Psychic Science, Magic, Demonology, Spiritism, Mysticism and Metaphysics," it was compiled by Lewis Spence, the author of numerous books on folklore, mythology and occult-related subjects. Its 2,500 dictionary-style entries (many of which run to several pages) range from well-known terms ("abracadabra," "poltergeist," "spells," "vampire") to more arcane topics, and include listings for historical figures with ties to the occult such as Nostradamus, John Dee, Mary Baker Eddy, and Catherine de Medici. An oft-cited resource and a classic of its genre, this edition promises to enjoy an instant and lasting popularity.

Practical Rosicrucian principles are explored to address everyday issues in personal and business contexts. The book provides specific strategies for achieving health, happiness, and success while highlighting the effective use of metaphysical concepts. It emphasizes avoiding common pitfalls that hinder progress. Authored by a founder of the Ancient and Mystic Order Rosae Crucis, the text reflects his extensive background in occult studies and correspondence education, offering insights from his experiences in developing Rosicrucian teachings.

Delving into the true history of the Rosicrucian order, the author challenges the common belief that it originated in seventeenth-century Germany. Instead, he argues that the order's roots extend far deeper into history, suggesting that the seventeenth-century events were a revival rather than a beginning. The book uncovers ancient mystical secrets, their significance, and the reasons behind the Rosicrucians' preservation of these teachings over centuries, offering a fresh perspective on a well-known mystical tradition.

The romantic legend of the rise and fall of Atlantis has enchanted imaginations since Plato first told of a glorious island in the Atlantic that sank beneath the waves. Speculation has abounded ever since: Was there really a great ancient civilization on a vast continent, now many thousands of fathoms under the sea? Or is Atlantis rooted in the Great Flood stories found in cultures around the world? Scientists formerly dismissed the possibility of Atlantis' existence but were obliged to reconsider, partly because of the author of this book. Lewis Spence (1874–1955) wrote five books about Atlantis, and this one is considered his best. A distinguished scholar, Spence sifted through a tremendous body of fact and guesswork in fields ranging from mythology and comparative religion to geography, geology, and archeology. He brings a fresh and imaginative vision to the old stories, separating fact from fancy in regard to Atlantis' history, geography, animal life, government, and religion. This work stands as the most authoritative study ever published on Atlantis, and Spence represents the perfect guide to this strange and enthralling mystery of the ancient world.
