Subtitled: A sacred history of the dominions of the higher and lower heavens on the earth for the past twenty-four thousand years, together with a synopsis of the cosmogony of the universe; the creation of planets; the creation of man; the unseen worlds; the labor and glory of gods and goddesses in the etherean heavens; with the new commandments of Jehovih to man of the present day, with revelations from the second resurrection, formed in words in the thirty-third year of the Kosmon Era. Reprint of the first edition originally published in 1882, plus reproductions of original oil paintings and photographs by John Ballou Newbrough excerpted from the 1891 (second and revised) edition. This is a fascinating example of a religious variant, that involves both spirituality and extraterrestrials. This religious group appears to have started in 1848, since 1882 is also rendered as the 34th year of the Kosmon Era.
