Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Richard Bentley: And Other Writings
Is the problems here treated are not numerous, one of them at least (viz., the problem of The Essenes) is the most important, and, secondly, from its mysteriousness, the most in teresting; but also, thirdly, the most difficult of all known historic problems and so much so, that, in my opinion, this (if estimated by any progress made in deciphering it down to the date of my own attempt), would have been classed as the one insoluble case amongst all historic problems yet offered to the investigation of thoughtful men.
