Description:

Isobel Blackthorn's portrait of Alice Bailey is at once intimate and authoritative, entertainingly readable and densely researched. Alice A. Bailey: Life & Legacy delves into the life and times of British aristocrat and Christian missionary turned theosophist whose writings, esoteric school and organisations provided the foundations of the New Age movement. A woman who counted among her friends Eleanor Roosevelt and Grand Duke Alexander of Russia. A survivor of horrific domestic violence, controversy dogged Alice Bailey from the moment she joined the Theosophical Society and rose to prominence as teacher and scribe for a master of the wisdom known as the Tibetan. She was accused by purists in her own genre of false claim-making. Others complained she was an anti-Semite, despite being on Hitler's blacklist for speaking up in defence of the Jewish people. Belittled by scholars, vilified by conspiracy theorists, Alice Bailey has ultimately been shafted by history. Yet her co-workers continue to this day to carry her way of thinking into the auspices of the United Nations, whose World Core Curriculum is based on her ideas. A full biography of Alice Bailey is long overdue. The Bailey books have inspired many thousands of spiritual seekers and practitioners around the world. Blackthorn's biography is a significant read for those wishing to gain a richer understanding of Alice Bailey; it is a book that will appeal to theosophists and all spiritual seekers worldwide.
