Samenvatting
Eirenaeus Philalethes was reputed to have performed miracles—restoring an aged lady’s teeth and hair, bringing a withered peach tree to fruit—and was also rumored to possess a philosophers’ stone. That he was merely a mythical creation didn't diminish his public reputation a whit. This is the story of the man behind the myth, George Starkey.
