Anything he writes about Crowley appears insightful, he writes very critically of him at times, not a sycophant, but he doesn't have single overall biography about the old man. All of Churton's Crowley biographies appear excellent, most focus on one time period except <i>Aleister Crowley - The Biography ...</i> covers his whole life. I also enjoyed <i>Do What Thou Wilt ...</i> by Sutin.Oz Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061222169144560970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5887440039323868659.post-55049986005791413592022-07-07T21:01:48.885-07:002022-07-07T21:01:48.885-07:00So many choices…

Like Wilson, I prefer Regardie's biography (an early and certainly biased biography, but written by someone who knew him) and Crowley's own Confessions. Admittedly, Crowley isn't unbiased in the least, but I can forgive that in the person with the cheek to call his autobiography and autohagiography.
