Cooper-Oakley's biography on Comte de St. Germain is the first biographical sketch written about this enigmatic character. Called by Frederick the Great "The man who does not die" Saint Germain was said to possess the Elixir of Life, and to be virtually immortal. Germain was the friend, confident, and spy of European rulers for a generation. Two hundred years after his disappearance from the scene of politics, his reputation as an emissary from the Invisible Brotherhood intrigues us even more. While there is a definite Theosophical spin to her work, Cooper-Oakley's "Comte de St. German" remains to this day seminal reading for those interested in this "Unknown Superior" of Western Esotericism - Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism in particular - almost a century after it was written. A very good book and well worth reading by any one interested in the mysterious occult forces behind history. Jean Overton-Fuller's historical biography on Comte de Saint Germain is a fine follow-up to this one.

at the same time, this book explains some of the mysteries surrounding St Germain, and adds to the mystery as well. if you are interested in some of the history of europe and what St Germain did during the years leading up to and after the french revolution, this is a good read. more scholarly than most books, and hence a little tedious at times.

This book is valuable for those who are searching for the practical life and evidence of Comte de St. Germain. An immortal who is still very active in the world today.

This book was delivered promptly and in excellent condition. The Count is very dear to my heart, so I was happy to receive the book in such a positive way.

I am an editor and love to read, so I use Amazon a lot. Oakley is the expert on this subject.
