This review is from: Pythagoras and the Delphic Mysteries (Paperback)
There IS a relationship between Pythagoras and Delphi, but those wanting to know about it will find little of interest here. The prose is turgid to an extent that makes it virtually impenetrable. The style and the treatment of the subject matter are fanciful in the extreme. The format is oversized (9x12) and the type is also very large, probably about 18 points. It is so badly printed that it might be xeroxed. I would not have bought this book had I seen it in a bookstore. I am returning it.
