This republication presents a detailed exploration of the controversies that plagued Olcott's career and challenged the foundations of theosophy. Readers interested in occultism, historical biography, and general history will find a compelling examination of a pivotal moment in the history of spiritual movements. This book offers a critical perspective on the claims and personalities associated with the rise of theosophy in the late 19th century.
