Paul,

I don't care if your statements are wrong.  I have started
reading IN SEARCH OF THE MASTERS, and It's still too early to
make many comments, but I'm so glad that you are introducing me
to these people: Sotheran, Rawson, and Mazzini are people I never
knew and you can assert their true identity to be Poccahontas,
I'll just laugh and thank you, thank you, thank you for
presenting these people in an interesting way.

Now I have information which I can followup with to increase my
knowledge and understanding of the world around me.  What hit me
about your book right away was the emphasis that Freemasonry has
had on the world and you present socialism, spiritualism, and
political struggles.  This is tantalizing stuff.

Why couldn't Scotland border France in the 1500s? It's just
across the sea, isn't it? It seems a little bit far fetched to
suggest the writer really meant Spain.  I prefer to think that
Scotland had people who were mystically inclined and aware of
spiritual movements on the planet than to think they were only
going on in Spain with the Sufis.
