St. Clair, David. The Psychic World of California. First Edition. 1972. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition.
This book takes a amusing but not incredulous look at the mediums, astrologers, clairvoyants, tarot readers, flying saucer buffs, healers, and witches of California. Not surprisingly, the Golden State has a disproportionate share of America’s occultists, and this author’s explanation is that the Pacific states are all that remain of the now submerged continent of Lemuria, which was inhabited by a race of superhumans. In addition to interviews with the state’s leading psychics and astrologists, the book includes a profile of Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satanism, who proudly claims he was Charles Manson’s mentor.
“Satan has certainly been the best friend the church has ever had, and he has kept it in business all these years. without a devil to point their fingers at, religionists of the right-hand path would have had nothing with which to threaten their followers.”
--Church of Satan’s Anton LaVey
