Following the scholarly but general observations of Flinders Petrie, Piazzi Smyth and others of earlier explorations, the Edgars were the first to make thorough and precise measurements with contemporary tools of that day. They also wrote a number of Biblical treatises regarding character, doctrine and scriptural lessons. These works were reprinted and are still available in the 1,000 pages of Great Pyramid Passages and 360 pages of Faiths Foundations. John died in 1910. Morton died in 1950. Recently it became apparent that there are additional treatises, reports, discourses, letters and notes from these brothers, that were never published or reprinted. Gleanings from Glasgow gathers and presents this as supplementary to their more widely circulated publications. Because of the magnitude and diversity of this material, there are some anomalies in this format. The range of material includes specialized treatises, convention discourse reports, open letters and personal correspondence. With this diversity, the book is divided into three main sections as noted in the Table of Contents with items mainly arranged by date within each. Some items originated in Europe and others in America. The Letters: The larger portion of are between Hugo Karlen of Sweden and Morton Edgar. These frequently include advanced geometric analysis of the Pyramid as well as matters of mutual concern. Due to the complexity of some diagrams, a brief appendix expands on some of these aspects. ~ Contents > Preface . The Great Pyramid Portrayal of Creation (1923). The Great Pyramid Witness (1929).
