From Editorial Note: "These lectures published in book form as it was one of Doctor Steiner's last wishes that his lectures - hitherto restricted to members - should become public property. It should be noted they have been translated from a very difficult form of German and lack the extempore speech and were uncorrected by Steiner. With the Penmaenmawr set of lectures they form, the consummation of his life work should be read with his earlier works to derive full benefit. We are greatly indebted to Frau Doctor Steiner for her kind permission to publishe these in English. They are a precious memento of those happy occasions when she was able to visit with her husband." Printed in Great Britain by Lawrence Bros. (Weston-super-Mare), Ltd., 58 High Street, Somerset. 224 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.…
