Book Description

April 24, 2008
Our first book, Real Alchemy, provides a glimpse into the general theory and practices surrounding the Art of Alchemy as handed down in the Western World. This second work delves more deeply into "the why of the how" behind laboratory alchemy and elaborates greater detail on some of the mineral works of Alchemy both ancient and modern. Herein you will find a wealth of information concerning the practical art and science of alchemy that makes this arcane subject accessible to the modern student.

5.0 out of 5 stars An essential resource, October 16, 2008
By 
Dionne R. Deschenne (Port Townsend, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Way of the Crucible (Paperback)
True alchemists are a rarity in our modern world, and even more rarely are they present in the public eye. With his first book, "Real Alchemy", and now this one, Bartlett provides us with knowledge that is hard to find yet absolutely essential for those of us curious about the ancient art of alchemy. If you have such a curiosity I HIGHLY recommend both of Bartlett's books.

5.0 out of 5 stars A laboratory essential, May 17, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Way of the Crucible (Paperback)
As with his first book on practical alchemy, this book is non-pretentious and clearly worded. Bartlett is doing more to spread the word on Hermetic thought than anyone has for thousands of years. If you want to get your hands dirty and head down this path in earnest this book is pure gold.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get The Way of the crucible if you want to learn, January 23, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Way of the Crucible (Paperback)
I have done spagyric work and have wanted to Get into the metal kingdom and this book realy opens the door to that.
If you have read Real alchemy or have the Alchemist handbook by frater Albertus then it would also be good to get this book, and some antimony aswell.
The way of the crucible takes out all the guess work and shows you in plain simple English but it can help to know what a green lion and a red Dragon are, if not the book will tell you.
If you are an alchemist or want to be then it would be wise to get this book.
