4.0 out of 5 stars
Insightful and informative,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dr. John Dee: Elizabethan Mystic and Astrologer (Paperback)
Being a descendant of Dr. Dee I found the book very informative. It gave an insightful explanation of his conversations with angels and presented it in a fair manner. It also presented some good information on his personal life and family. It would have been nice to have more information on his children, however, even though the title indicates that it would focus mainly on his abillities as a mystic and astrologer. It is much easier reading than Mr. French's book, and coupled with Dr. Dee's diary, it helps to give good background and information on this very intelligent but unrewarded, underappreciated and greatly misunderstood man.
1.0 out of 5 stars
Weak, boring....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dr. John Dee: Elizabethan Mystic and Astrologer (Paperback)
This book is not for anyone intested in the Dee's work. It's a history of his life and an incomplete one at that. Look elsewhere.
