Comte De St. Germain

The Comte de St. Germain was one of the most mysterious characters in history. He was a brilliant man with incredible knowledge and because of this, traveled widely. Royal families in most European countries had invited him for special visits as their guest. He lived during the 17th century, however the dates of his birth and death and shrouded in mystery. He was known as a mystic, philosopher, and master alchemist who held the key to immortality. The various sightings of St. Germain after he was presumed dead added more credence to these claims, especially considering the fact that those who had claimed to see him were high-profile people who were known to be credible. This book has always been the most rare and sought after work concerning the life of St. Germain. The author was able to procure documents and papers unavailable to others during her years of research, which thereby allows some of the mystery surrounding this man to drop away as one reads through these pages. Nowhere beyond this book will one find documents written in St. Germains own hand, providing proof of his whereabouts and concerns during certain parts of his mysterious life. This was a complex man and, although he traveled under different names during his life (as was often done at the time by high-profile people), Cooper-Oakley does an impressive job tracing his lifes work and his movements between countries. What emerges is a more complete and fascinating picture of the Comte de St. Germain that deserves to be explored by anyone interested in the mystery and secrets that surround him.
