Sex Slaves... Buried Treasure... Egyptian Rites. Read about the man for whom "the devil renamed a day in hell." This is the legend of Brother XII. His nefarious deeds were the talk of Canada in the 1920s and 1930s when he established a cult following and colony on Vancouver Island. There, at the theosophical Aquarian Foundation, Brother XII professed to usher in a new age, restoring the mysteries of ancient Egypt. And there he bilked his followers out of thousands of dollars. His religion has been called "bizarre," "preposterous," and "downright evil" by Pierre Berton: the stories surrounding his scandalous affairs are mythic. Then learn about the real Brother XII. Using original research, MacIsaac, Clark, and Lillard delve into the history of Vancouver Island and the Theosophical circles of the beginning of this century. In Brother XII the fog of half-truths shrouding this man of mystery is lifted for a story even more intriguing than the myth. --- from book's back cover
