The Nine Unknown by Tablot Mundy
After buying it from ebay through my sister in US, I finally managed to get my hands on the book a few days back..
And there is a story on how i got this book,
I was on a desperate thing to buy this book,the original book, I looked all over the Internet but could not get my hands on one…I found lots of facsimile edition and costly ones too…around $ 49-150.I was tired and was about to buy one of them but it was that moment of despair i found it.
It was just put up for auction on eBay US and i put a maximum bid for $ 10 using my sisters account.
A week later i won the bid
Now here is the interesting part, the guy who auctioned it off packed the book and was about to send it when he passed away.Yes he passed away,well it took more that a month for the book to arrive and i had to contact the ebay anti fraud dept,they in turn got hold of the owner and found out that the owner had passed off, Some one else on her behalf posted the book.
My brave little sister was too scared to open the book as she thought that it was jinxed.The book had to wait for more that a year to get to me and well i got it today
I really cannot make out the date when it was printed,can’t really seem to find it.
Here are a few screenshots

For those who want to know what the fuss about the nine unknow men is all about
According to occult lore, the Nine Unknown Men are a two millennia-old secret society founded by the Indian Emperor Asoka c. 270 BCE. According to the legend, upon his conversion to Buddhism after a massacre during one of his wars, the Emperor founded the society of the Nine to preserve and develop knowledge that would be dangerous to humanity if it fell into the wrong hands. Some versions of the story include an additional motivation for the Emperor to conceal scientific knowledge: remnants of the Rama Empire, an Indian version of Atlantis, which according to Hindu scripture was destroyed by advanced weaponry 15,000 years ago.
