¶ Two books, the first book ‘comprises an appreciation of an old seventeenth century MS., which is the most remarkable accurate in its forecast of British national development. It shows the successive stages by which our modern political arrangement has come about, in the light of a viewpoint which may be novel to a very great number of people. The second book presents a considered opinion regarding the racial root-origins of Anglo-Saxondom, and pays special attention to certain elements fundamentally antagonistic to Anglo-Saxondom in general.’ Leslie Furze-Morrish (1898-1979) ‘mid-20th century Melbourne mystic, astrologer and theosophist, and a former officer in the British field artillery, who published a single work of weird fiction. Some of his research papers were published in American journals.’
