Sex and Rockets

The Occult World of Jack Parsons

by John Carter

The first full-length study of Jack Parsons, the self-taught chemist who helped found American rocketry and led the Agape Lodge of the Ordo Templi Orientis in Pasadena. Carter draws on letters, diaries and lodge records to reconstruct Parsons's magical career, the Babalon Working of 1946 with L. Ron Hubbard, and the circumstances of his death in 1952.
