The Cipher of Roger Bacon - William Romaine Newbold - Bog

The Cipher of Roger Bacon is a book written by William Romaine Newbold that explores the mystery of a manuscript attributed to the medieval philosopher and alchemist, Roger Bacon. The manuscript, known as the Voynich Manuscript, is written in an unknown script and contains illustrations of plants, animals, and astronomical phenomena. Newbold believed that he had cracked the code of the manuscript and that it contained Bacon's secret teachings on alchemy and other esoteric subjects. However, his theory was later debunked, and the manuscript remains an unsolved mystery to this day. The book provides a fascinating insight into the world of medieval alchemy and the attempts to unlock the secrets of the Voynich Manuscript.This is a new release of the original 1928 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
