ISIS UNVEILED is the first ever book published under the classification of theosophical literature. Though The Theosophical Society was formed in 1875, there was no literature available till this publication came out in 1877. Members and public had to be content with the communications sent by the founders occasionally, and pamphlets and circulars issued. The monthly journal The Theosophist was started only in 1879, when the founders landed in India. Madame H. P. Blavatsky [1831-'91] wrote -- rather compiled - this big and voluminous book and got it published by J W Bottom, 706, Broadway, London, Bernard Quaritch.

She sub-titled the book as "A Master-key to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern Science and Theology", and dedicated the work To The Theosophical Society, which was founded at New York during A.D. 1875 to Study the Subjects on which they (the volumes) treat.
