Though best known as a writer of thrilling pulp fiction, the creator of Fu Manchu also hobnobbed with the mystics and seekers of his time. In this 1914 history of the occult, his only nonfiction book, Rohmer introduces the reader to his passion for magic—telling the tales of Nostradamus; Cagliostro; and Elizabeth I’s court magician, Dr. John Dee.
