Biography of Ida Craddock, an early twentieth-century American occultist and sexologist, along with a collection of her writings. 
 
Hailed by Aleister Crowley as a great occult teacher, Ida Craddock became infamous for her correspondence courses on sex for newlyweds, which included material on sexual mysticism, along with teachings that Craddock maintained came in part from her 'angelic husband'. This 'angelic husband' was one with whom she claimed to have regular intercourse; branded mentally ill, Craddock was eventually arrested in 1902 under New York's anti-obscenity laws, and subsequently took her own life. 
This is an important book that brings another much-overlooked female occultist back from the shadows of history into the light to take her rightful place.
