W.R.H. Trowbridge's 1910 historical biography, Cagliostro: The Splendour and Misery of a Master of Magic , re-examines the 18th-century occultist's life, aiming to challenge traditional portrayals of him as a mere swindler. The work delves into topics like the Diamond Necklace Affair and his establishment of Egyptian Freemasonry across Europe.
