Paschal Beverly Randolph is a rich source of information on predecessors of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor, a group which studied some of his publications. Records on ancestry.com have enabled me to track down some biographical details in his writings, so for the rest of 2023 I will share this material already on hand about Randolph, along with news of interest that emerges.
The big news of interest this month is the arrival of Ronnie Pontiac’s long-awaited American Metaphysical Religion at the end of January. His interest in Alexander Wilder, Thomas Moore Johnson, and their associates preceded my own and will now reach a far wider readership than the Letters to the Sage volumes.
