A timely survey of radical spirituality and political activism in Islam and the West over the last century and a half, The Crescent And The Compass uncovers numerous previously unknown and unexplored connections between European, American, and Middle Eastern movements, organizations, secret societies, and thinkers. Subjects covered include Sufism and Islamic Gnosticism; Muslim revolutionaries and Freemasons; RenE GuEnon, fringe Masonry, Traditionalism, and Islam; the early history of the Shriners; the Ancient Order of Zuzimites; Charles, Prince of Wales and Islamic spirituality; and militant anti-Freemasonry. Praise for the First Edition: ..".a highly significant work... of extra ordinary importance in this time of cultural and even spiritual conflict." - Robert Black, New Dawn magazine. ..". an excellent reminder of the wisdom that can come studying the intersections of cultures, people, and places." - Aimee E. Newell, The Northern Light. "Millar's... understanding of his chosen subjects is deep. I can recommend this book wholeheartedly as an example of scholarship and research in the interest of making clearer Freemasonry's tangled relationship with little-understood trends and figures in the modern world." - Jay Kinney, The Plumbline (Scottish Rite Research Society).
