First published in 1908, Jennings collates an extensive compendium of thirteen hundred reproductions of ornamental letters dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

Those interested in the Western hermetic tradition may know that the 18th century Golden and Rosicrucian Order was a high degree Masonic Order with a strong emphasis on laboratory alchemy. This work was considered a preparation for the theurgical work which they taught in their higher degrees, where the final aim of their system was to become a Biblical type of prophet. This compilation of the 13 letters, now in print for the first time in modern type, as well as translated into English, is distinguished among the many other books of its time, some of which also claim origin with said order but fail to deliver. For all who take an interest in Fulcanelli, along with the classics, Cyliani, Philalethes, or Sendivogius, this is a must-read and a perfect companion to the "Hermes Trismegistus Old and True Natural Path," also available from Lulu.

New York Times bestselling author Maureen Johnson’s funny, heartbreaking, and utterly romantic tale gets a great new cover! Ginny Blackstone never thought she’d spend her summer vacation backpacking across Europe. But that was before she received the first little blue envelope from Aunt Peg. This letter was different from Peg’s usual letters for two reasons: 1. Peg had been dead for three months. 2. The letter included $1000 cash for a passport and a plane ticket. Armed with instructions for how to retrieve twelve other letters Peg wrote—twelve letters that tell Ginny where she needs to go and what she needs to do when she gets there—Ginny quickly finds herself swept away in her first real adventure. Traveling from London to Edinburgh to Amsterdam and beyond, Ginny begins to uncover stories from her aunt’s past and discover who Peg really was. But the most surprising thing Ginny learns isn’t about Peg . . . it’s about herself. Everything about Ginny will change this summer, and it’s all because of the 13 little blue envelopes. Look for the sequel, The Last Little Blue Envelope!
