Ormonde, Dr. Mystery Unveiled. [Edinburgh], [1898]. Publisher's pictorial boards. Illustrated. 8vo. Boards significantly soiled, binding shaken, spine broken and end papers torn, but contents sound. Scarce. This is clearly an unauthorized imitation of Samri Baldwin's The Secrets of Mahatmaland Explained. Contents include discussions of thought reading, lightning calculations, and facts in sacred history. Several poor imitations of Baldwin's publicity material are reproduced on the final leaves of this book by the relatively obscure Dr. Ormonde.
