Ran across a title. Out of curiosity, tried trolling the internet for more info. No joy. Does anyone know anything about a book titled "Wisdom is One" by Benjamin Williams Huntsman printed/copyrighted Jan 1, 2000?

1Welcome to the site! The question is very short, so I'm not sure what exactly you're looking for here? You already have the title and author, unlike in most story-identification questions. Do you need more publication info, or are you looking for where to buy the book, or do you want a plot summary, or what? – Rand al'Thor♦ Jul 22 '20 at 9:40

2Shouldn't that be "tried strolling the internet for more info"? – Jenayah Jul 22 '20 at 12:10

Actually, the book was originally published in 1947. Here are a few editions that I found:
- Wisdom is one : being a collection of quotations from the sayings and writings of some of the masters and their followers, collated to show the fundamental identity of all veritable teachings / compiled by B.W. Huntsman. This is the edition from 2000 in the Library of Congres, but the note in the catalogue entry says, "Originally published: London : A. Dakers, 1947."
- A reprint by Watkins (London), 1953 listed in WorldCat.
- A reprint by Stuart & Watkins, 1969, currently on Amazon.com. (This is presumably the same publisher as the previous one, possibly after a merger with another publisher.)
- A reprint by C.E. Tuttle (Rutland, Vermont), 1985 listed in WorldCat.
- A reprint by Aeon (Mamaroneck, New York), 2000 listed in WorldCat.
