Appendix E:  List of the Holy Books
(Or, Class 'A' Documents)

Aleister Crowley classified much of his occult work into various categories designed to show the importance of each document.  Class 'A' books are those that are so important that nothing is to be changed, not even the style of the letter.  It is fair to assume that any document in this category is to be considered important to Thelemic Gnosis and integral to the Religious Tenants of Thelema.  To this end I present this list of works that are classified as Class 'A' (and where to find them).

Liber I. Liber B vel Magi. (HBT1, GE2, MTP3)
Liber VII. Liber Liberi Vel Lapidis Lazuli (HBT, GE)
Liber X. Liber Porta Lucis (HBT, GE)
Liber XXVII. Liber Trigrammaton (HBT)
Liber LXV. Liber Cordis Cincti Serpente (HBT)
Liber LXVI. Liber Stellae Rubae (HBT, GE)
Liber XC. Liber Tzaddi Vel Hamus Hermeticus. (HBT, GE)
Liber CLVI. Liber Cheth Vel Vallum Abiegni. (HBT, GE, MTP)
Liber CCXX. Liber AL Vel Legis.
