A very nice copy of the 1992 edition of Grant's book, in near fine condition with a very good dust jacket. Grant's excellent examination of Crowley's desire to free man from bondage by showing how to invoke his latent genius, his Hidden God. This is a detailed study of Crowley's sexual magick and esoteric rituals. This is a very good copy. Pages are clean and bright, with no markings or inscriptions at all, and uncommon thus. A little natural tanning on pastedown and FEP, otherwise pages are excellent. One illustration has a tiny extra piece of paper on corner (printing error). All the excellent illustrations are intact. Binding is tight. DJ is unclipped and very good, clean and unfaded, just a little rubbing, and minor shelfwear at top. Rare to see this edition in such good condition.
