Harrison's book does not contain the full text of the 1885 "Hodgson
Report". It contains an examination of it, a further study of it,
replies to criticism, opinion, affidavit and information about the
author (Harrison).
Glad to know it will be published in Portuguese. I understand there
was a storm of attacks on HPB and the TS in Brazil some years ago
when Peter Washington's "Madame Blavatsky's Baboon"'s Portuguese
edition was published. Some evangelical churches there are in the
habit of attacking and denigrating HPB and Theosophy as "satanic".
Letters were written by members of the TS to main newspapers in the
country defending HPB, but only a few were published. I wonder if
such periodical attacks are common in other countries too.
