—Times-Union [Brooklyn]
 
“It must be recorded to the lasting credit of Paul Brunton that what he has suffered and achieved very few people would ever be willing to do.… One cannot really help admiring his zeal for daring enterprise, his totally unbiased and critical mind.”
—The Leader [Allahabad, India]
 
“Mr. Brunton's book does not make us wonder whether there are not more things in heaven and earth than are known to our philosophy; it makes us certain that there are.”
—News-Review [London]
 
“For all his love of the untoward, Mr. Brunton clearly distinguishes between what is spiritual and what is magical or super-normal, and it is just this which makes his book not only a fascinating but a valuable guide to the hidden lore of ancient times.”
—The Inquirer
 
“ … his book remains fascinating as the account of a traveler far less prejudiced and much better instructed than the average. A Search in Secret Egypt contains many excellent pen-pictures of the Two Lands and their monuments, as well as numerous accounts of literally marvelous adventures in that 'temple of the whole world' we call Egypt.”
—The New York Times Book Review
 
“Believe it or not—this book will thrill you.”
—Washington Post
