Crowley was trying to get Liber Aleph into print during 1947, and the attempt was continued by Germer after his death. Grant wrote a Praface to it which he submitted to Germer. The publishing attempt collapsed, but a carbon survives in typescript of Grant's Preface. Dated August 1948, it is likely to be included in a forthcoming collection of articles, Introductions and essays by Kenneth on magic. This will make a companion volume of sorts to At the Feet of the Guru, a collection of articles on Eastern Mysticism which he had published from the early 1950s onwards.

This is great news Michael! Really interested in seeing material like this released. (as an aside, At the Feet of the Guru is one of my favorite books by the man)

This is great news Michael! Really interested in seeing material like this released. (as an aside, At the Feet of the Guru is one of my favorite books by the man) There's a few bits and pieces which would have a place in such a compilation. For instance, Kenneth wrote an Introduction to a German edition of The Magical Revival which is excellent, and worthy of making more available. The Introduction and notes survive of the projected Paris and Amalantrah Workings, as well as a few essays from the 1950s. Just to what your appetite, Gregory! |

It is exciting that previously unpublished writings, as well as some hard to find pieces will be published! Looking forward to it! |

Still makes me sad to no longer have him around, I never met the great man but still feel his loss.

Wow! A companion volume to "At the Feet of the Guru" very exciting, I'll bet there's all kinds of amazing insights to be found in this one. I am very excited about this one.
