Women of the Golden Dawn: Rebels and Priestesses

The Golden Dawn Women's Mysteries is a groundbreaking book that sheds light on the lives of four remarkable women who were core members of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in 19th-century Europe.

These women, including Maud Gonne, Moina Bergson Mathers, Annie Horniman, and Florence Farr, were equally involved in the order alongside famous men like Yeats and Shaw, yet their stories have been largely overlooked until now. This book provides a well-researched and engaging narrative of these women's lives, exploring their involvement in the Golden Dawn and their contributions to politics, literature, and theater.

Despite some limitations in the construction of the narrative, this book is an important addition to the study of women's history and the history of magic. The author has done an excellent job of balancing the strengths and weaknesses of the book, making it a valuable purchase for libraries and readers interested in the subject matter.

With its excellent bibliography and well-written text, The Golden Dawn Women's Mysteries is a must-read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of these fascinating women and their place in history.
