Self published, Australia, 2012. Second Edition. Softcover. New Book. Taken from the author's introduction : All through history there have been people, men women & children, who have claimed to have been shown windows into the future. Most were quite accurate in the short term but when it came to predicting the end of the world or the end of time - supposedly the same thing - they would slump trancelike into mystic language & begin speaking in riddles....A number of Bible characters also predict the future course of events but by and large they used the same methods - 'When you see these things know that the time is near'. Daniel, for instance, was so accurate with his 'short term' prophecies that many scholars believed someone else must have written them for him after the events had occured....This book approaches this dilemma from a different perspective. It first figures out what earth time is, where it comes from & when it is due to come to the end of its… Read More

Hutchinson, London, 1935. 4th Impression. Hardcover. Good Condition/Poor. Here ends the second of the three novels on the historian Flavius Josephus . The novel "Josephus" was originally intended to contain only two parts. The second, final volume was sketched out to the end & a part of it written in 1932, when the first published. But when the National Socialists looted my house in March, 1933, they destroyed the manuscript of that final volume, as well as the historical material that was also there. To restore the lost part in its original form proved to be impossible. I had learned a great deal more about the theme of "Josephus" - Nationalism & world-citizenship - the material burst its earlier mould, & I was compelled to divide it into three volumes." - L.F. “The second volume of the trilolgy of which Josephus was the first.
