Library. Books by Arthur Edward Waite.

Since I mentioned A. E. Waite in the Twitter chat last night, I thought I would include a list of his books for the Library entry today. His books are in the public domain and they give a great perspective on the re-discovery of alchemy in the 19th and early 20th century by people interested in the mystical, spiritual, and psychological dimensions of alchemy. Some other time I'll check to see if there are other works of his online that I did not find at the incredible Hathi Trust!
