=>The history of the THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY 
(and people involved) is well
covered in the documentary history book:

THE HISTORY OF THE THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY 
(1875-1950)
[Theosophy Company, Los Angeles ]



But that counts only for the EXOTERIC part of 
the Theosophical Movement.
The author(s) reject, twist, intermix, 
misunderstand totally the ESOTERIC aspects of 
the TM, esp. the Guruparampara, the inner and 
outer messengers, etc.

If you consider this in your study, the book 
can be of much worth. But do you really study 
a Hinayana text to get an idea of the 
Bodhisattva ideal and what Avataras are?
