This has been clearly demonstrated by Guillaume Postel, Court de Gébelin, Etteila, Eliphas Levi, and J. A. Vaillant. The key to its construction and application has not yet been revealed, so far as I know. I therefore wished to fill up this deficiency by supplying Initiates, i. e. those who are acquainted with the elements of occult science, with an accurate guide, which would assist them in the pursuit of their studies. The uninitiated reader will find in it the explanation of the lofty philosophy and science of ancient Egypt; whilst ladies are enabled to practise the use of the divining Tarot, by methods which we have rendered easy in Chapter XX. The book has been so arranged that each part forms a complete whole, which can, if necessary, be studied separately. I have used every effort to be as clear as possible; the public that has warmly welcomed my other books will, I hope, forgive the imperfections inherent to a work of this kind.". 355 pages with authors and works quoted.

Described as a foundational, advanced text for serious Tarot students, Tarot for Bohemians was originally written by the French physician and occultist Gerard Encausse (died 1916) under his pen name, Papus. It links the Marseilles Deck - a standard pattern of Italian-suited tarot cards popular in France from the 17th to 19th centuries - with Kabbalah, astrology and Hermeticism. A E Waite, designer of the well-known Waite-Smith deck (also known as the Rider-Waite deck) provides the preface for this English language edition, connecting the French tarot tradition to his own work and providing a key for students for deeper esoteric research,  .
