Frederick Carter, Dragon of the Alchemists, IHO 2001 Paperback 176pp elegantly printed in three colours. Illustrated. Introduction by Arthur Machen. Crowleys endeavours are often taken out of context. In some ways he was part of a current, invoking pagan, occult and eschatological themes to rebel against the established culture. This work can be seen in that context, the author was, of course, a close colleague of Austin Osman Spare. Peter MacFarlane of 93 Publishing realised the connection in publishing this work in the 1970's. It is heartening to see this new edition, presenting this intruiging work to a new audience  Mint Order No. 2919 £10

Frederick Carter (and D.H.Lawrence), Dragon of Revelation, IHO 2002 Paperback 324pp (9.5ins x 7ins)  Illustrated by Carter. This reproduces the introdction for thie work written by Lawrence, originally published in the London Mercury. It also has the note by the publisher from the 1933 edition which tells a remarkable story. It would seem that a posthumous title by Lawrence, Apocalypse, had been published. It was an expanision of the Introduction that Lawrence was writing for the Dragon of Revelation. However it was published with no reference to Carter and this smackled of plaigarism, though this was more likely the work of an unscrupulous editor than Lawrence. A letter from Carter that was published in the London Mercury discussing these issues is reproduced as if "D.H.Lawrence and the Body Mystical" the substantial essay by Carter about Lawrence. The Dragon of Revelations deals with Carter's ideas concerning symbolism and the Book of Revelation. As one would expect from a close colleague of Austin Osman Spare, these are occult. They have certainly been seen as relevant to Thelemic ideas of the new Aeon. 93 Publishing republished similar material by Carter.  Lawrence has been associated with a neo-pagan resurgence and a rejection of oppressive morality. He was associated with the Mandrake Press and some have assumed some connection with Crowley. Perhaps, but the realtionship with Carter appears far more substantial, and this excellent publication provides the reader with the material to explore this. It is elegantluy produced with wide margins, coloured inks and decroated capitals  Mint Order No. 8034 £13.5
