The Alchymist and The Silurist is a historical novel based on the sometimes tortured life of Thomas Vaughan, a 17th-century Welsh Anglican pastor, who became obsessed with alchemy, and his twin brother Henry, the mystical poet known as the Silurist, distant kinsmen of author James E. Vaughan. Interrupting their studies at Oxford University, the twins joined the Royalists and their Cousin Herbert Price during the Puritan uprising, which came to be known as the English Civil War. During a hiatus in the hostilities, Thomas was defrocked as the pastor of his Anglican church in south Wales, whereupon he took up alchemy under the sponsorship of Sir Robert Moray. His pursuit of the fabled philsopher's stone led him to the continent of Europe and, some claimed, to America.
Stories of the controversial alchymist Thomas Vaughan were revived some two hundred years after his death by a roguish French writer named Gabrielle Jogand-Pages, who created elaborate hoaxes, pitting Freemasons against Catholics. Writing under various pseudonyms, he published a series of salacious stories about a young American girl named Diana Vaughan, who had journeyed to Paris hoping to prove her kinship to the 17th-century Welsh scientist. Diana and Leo, the sequel to The Alchymist and The Silurist, limns the life of Jogand-Pages who, as Leo Taxil, created great turmoil with his vicious attacks on Masons and Catholics alike. This book is now available from Trafford Publishing, 2657 Wilfert Road, Victoria BC CANADA V9B 5Z3, or on-line at Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble. Click here for details.
Our e-Lynks webmaster, James Vaughan, grew up in Van Lear, a company-built coal town in eastern Kentucky. In his eyes, Van Lear was a unique, a great place to "grow up in" despite The Great Depression and human tragedy. Van Lear's athletic teams were nicknamed BANKMULES, the title of Vaughan's new book, which KENTUCKY MONTHLY described as "a gem of a memoir." One Kentucky reader described it as a "beautiful book of unusual perfection." The Hardin County Kentucky News-Enterprise refers to it as "an uplifting book."
