I don't think any of us would find many books (if any at all) written by
Hermes Trismegistus -- since most such works could have been destroyed in the
burning of the Alexandrian Library. HPB did claim however that copies of
those ancient books were still available in some secret occultist's library
in the Himalayas. I think it would be difficult for you to prove that HPB
lied about that, or that she didn't have evidence that such books did exist
during the time of Plato.
