How Theosophical politiking is done at its highest levels, at least during
the time of Arundale's election, one should read Ernest Wood's book "Is
This Theosophy?" which was a very very rare book not found in most well
stocked libraries but for its recent reprint by a Westcost publisher. It
was after 30 years of association with Theosophical Society that I ran into
very accidentally.

But for theos-l many newbees would never know any of the feedback because
the official channels of communication are totally controlled.

Any one want to add....
