Synopsis:
The definitive collection of rare, secret, and arcane tarot knowledge
The Tarot: The Essential Writings from Tarot's Greatest Teachers is the ultimate guide to the mysteries and lost knowledge of the tarot. This single volume includes more than ten selections from foundational tarot books, all from the 19th and 20th century. Many of these critical texts have been forgotten, fallen out of print, or are impossible to acquire.
