The Magus A Complete System of Occult Philosophy Book 2

The Magus or Celestial Intelligencer; being a Complete System of Occult Philosophy is a handbook of the occult and ceremonial magic compiled by Francis Barrett and published in 1801. This book facilitated the modern revival of magic by making information from otherwise rare books readily available. It may have influenced novelist Edward Bulwer-Lytton and occultist Eliphas Levi. More controversially it has been identified as an influence on Joseph Smith Jr. founder of the Latter Day Saint movement in Reed C. Durham Jr.'s speech Is There No Help for the Widow's Son?
