Description:
When he died mysteriously in 1990--on a bed which he hadn`t slept in, and with ants crawling around his face--Manly Palmer Hall was a 33rd degree Mason, a prolific author, and an influential lecturer. His writings, particularly the encyclopedic SECRET TEACHINGS OF ALL AGES, could be said to have initiated the 20th-century New Age movement. In MASTER OF THE MYSTERIES, Los Angeles journalist Louis Sahagun fleshes out Hall`s life and work, contextualizing it within Southern California in the 1920s, `30s, and `40s, and treats his readers to many a Hollywood anecdote (for instance, Hall rubbed shoulders with many stars and at one point proposed to build a Mayan temple in the city`s downtown).
