I found a used copy of this in the occult section of the Strand book store in New York City. The price was 6 dollars, and it was intriguing enough after reading only a few pages, that I decided it could be a very good investment. It turned out to work out very well.



The quantity and quality of illustrations in this book alone is enough reason to find a copy.



The writer has a sort of passion for what he is dealing with, and yet does not get at all wordy about it. Every paragraph is interesting, and it will only pull you into the next one.



The way the author uses so many illustrations throughout history to explain things about the occult does not seem so common with most authors. To some, parts may seem like a mere history lesson on the subject, but it becomes much more than that--you'll find that there are so many things to learn from this book, it's surprising how much information has been packed into it.



It's a very, very interesting read no matter what your intentions are when buying this book, or however they may change, I doubt you will regret purchasing it--we should be thankful it is still fairly easy and cheap to obtain.
