Sword of Wisdom

MacGregor Mathers and "The Golden Dawn"

by Ithell Colquhoun

A biography of S. L. MacGregor Mathers by the surrealist painter and occultist Ithell Colquhoun, sympathetic to its subject and rich in detail on the Golden Dawn and its successor orders. It is idiosyncratic in places but remains the only full-length study of Mathers.
