Mitch Horowitz

Occult America (eBook, ePUB)

White House Seances, Ouija Circles, Masons, and the Secret Mystic History of Our Nation

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

From its earliest days, America served as an arena for the revolutions in alternative spirituality that eventually swept the globe. Esoteric philosophies and personas-from Freemasonry to Spiritualism, from Madame H. P. Blavatsky to Edgar Cayce-dramatically altered the nation's culture, politics, and religion. Yet the mystical roots of our identity are often ignored or overlooked. Opening a new window on the past, Occult America presents a dramatic, pioneering study of the esoteric undercurrents of our history and their profound impact across modern life.
