Theosophical Studies Presented to Ted G. Davy on His Seventy-fifth Birthday.
One of the writers in the present Volume, trying to articulate the contribution of Ted G. Davy to the field of Theosophical research, sent in the following: 'He is not famous. It may be that when at last his life comes to an end, he will leave no more trace of his sojourn on this earth than a stone thrown into a river leaves on the surface of the water. Yet it may be that the way of life he has chosen for himself may have an evergrowing influence over his fellow men, so that, long after his death perhaps, it may be realized that there lived in this age a very remarkable creature. "
'Remarkable' would certainly be the word agreed upon by most of the presenters in this Volume. Aside from his role as mentor, friend, advisor to many in the field of Theosophical studies for almost half a century, Ted Davy functioned as editor of The Canadian Theosophist from 1961 - 1991. Continuing the tradition of its founder, A.E.S. Smythe, the Journal was regarded as 'the conscience of the Theosophical movement'.

Doors of ancient dwellings
