Synopsis

Book Description:

Alchemy Rediscovered and Restored is a book by Archibald Cockren published in 1941. Cockren discussed not only the alleged history of alchemy, but also makes the claims that he had rediscovered and perfected the alchemical methods and that he had successfully created the philosopher's stone.

However, it is obvious to any serious student of alchemy that Cockren does not share the common understanding which is apparent between the authors of the majority of genuine alchemical works throughout history.

About the Author

Having been intimately associated with Archibald Cockren during the past ten years, and having long since learnt to place implicit confidence in his efficiency and reliability in all matters to which he has devoted his many remarkable gifts and talents, it affords me real pleasure to write a few words by way of introduction to 'Alchemy Rediscovered and Restored.'
