Isis Unveiled
Madame H. P. Blavatsky's book, entitled Isis Unveiled, has just been published, and copies reached us a day or two ago. It is in two ponderous closely printed volumes of between 600 and 700 pages each, neatly bound in cloth. The work has a copious index, apparently carefully drawn up, and it is well printed on good paper. Of the merits or demerits of the book we can, of course, say nothing at present, and how some of the New York papers managed, in a few hours, to come to exactly opposite conclusions to each other about the work, and to give in that time a verdict upon the character of the contents of 1,300 large pages of closely-printed letter-press, is a mystery. The book is said to contain much about the occult sciences and magic, as understood and practised in Eastern countries. Madame Blavatsky's agent has written to us that the price of the two vols. in England is £1 16s.
