Dallas Gives a List of books on original Theosophy

Dallas gives BELOW a list of books containing original
material both philosophical and historical on
Theosophy as given by HPB and her Teachers.

All of these sources are excellent works but let
me also add two sources which Dallas does not mention.
I have contributed these to the literature:

(1) THE ESOTERIC WORLD OF MADAME BLAVATSKY. This new
book gives 400 pages of reminiscences of HPB by 75
persons who knew her. Here is a sourcebook of original
material much of it quite rare and hard to find. I 
believe this unique book complements and supplements quite well
Sylvia Cranston's biography. Furthermore, the material is
arranged in chronological order and the story of Madame
Blavatsky's life is unfolded as one reads through the material.
Also there are 36 photographs and 8 drawings that bring
to life HPB's time. This new edition contains more than
80 pages of additional reminiscences when compared to the
1991 edition of my book. Hardcover, xii + 451 pp.
I hope all students and inquirers into HPB's life and
teachings will find this book quite helpful and useful.

I also hope that readers of Marion Meade's biography of
HPB and also of Paul Johnson's THE MASTERS REVEALED will
also read ESOTERIC WORLD. By comparing and contrasting
the material in these books one can gain a much greater
understanding of HPB and some of the controversy and
mystery surrounding her.

(2) THE BLAVATSKY ARCHIVES
This website is publishing the actual source documents
on HPB's life and work plus some of her letters and also
letters from the Masters that have never been published before.
Our intent is to publish some 2,500 documents on this site.
