U S A: Mark-Age. Hardback. Slight shelf wear to edges of D/J. Price clipped to D/J. This book presents the basic information needed to understand the nature and the causes of, and the solutions to, our perosnal and wolrd situations in this most climactic of all eras of Earth. The Mark-Age period is that forty-year period, known also as the latter days, which since 1960 has been ushering in the New or Aquarian Age, the Golden Era. It is the transition period wherein man must cleanse himself and the Earth sufficiently to permit his entry into the fourth dimension, a new mental and physical dimension of spiritual life.
