  
When the author published the original of this book at the end of the 19th Century as the crowning product of his Italian researches of the 1880s & 1890s, he believed he was preserving what remained of an ancient but dying tradition, before it was too late. He could not have known that in doing so he was providing one of the key source-books which would inspire a vigorous revival of that tradition half a century after his death. This expanded edition features contributions by several emminent authorities: Mario Pazzaglini, Ph.D., Chas S. Clifton, Robert E. Mathieson, Ph.D., Robert E. Chartowich & Stewart Farrar. Paperback, 478 pages.
