One of the few books on REAL Witchcraft out there.
This was the first ever book that I ever read about magic. I remember finding it hidden behind my father's book shelves, back when I was about nine or ten years old. It was just the fuel that my young imagination needed. Of course it worked and horribly backfired on myself, too young to handle what I had got myself into. But the point is it worked! I thank God that the book that I found was this one and not the stupid and useless books on Wicca that you get today. Nearly all of these modern books are utterly useless, filled with feeble New Age fluff and with no real magical knowledge in them at all. The only people that enjoy this feel good crap are nearly always lacking in intelligence and imagination and so need to be told what to think and feel. This brainwashing is not real Witchcraft! Be warned this book is the real thing! This book was my only source of magical knowledge for many years, and as old as it is, it is still worth a million of the modern books on Wicca that you find in the New Age section at your local book shop. This book is packed full of usefuk, practical magic that works and is not about the modern neo-Christian religion of the same name. This is a book on REAL Witchcraft. This is book is not filled with any fluffy feel good New Age rubbish. This book is not for the idiots who follow the neo-Christian religion of Wicca.
I learnt all of the basics of magic from this little tome. Looking at this work some 30 years later I realise that it is a rather nice and compact compilation of valuable and interesting magical lore and techniques primarily from medieval European sources. It is a collection of useful information from medieval grimoires, and rennaisance magical manuals. This is a very modestly priced volume which presents something of the true flavour of the traditional Magical Arts of the Middle Ages. All in all a pretty useful tome and well worth the price.
Fair
I really like this book. It's kinda like my bible. It has a lot a valuble information for those seeking to find a path. It also contains glossary of herbs, stones, animals and other substances that I found to be very useful. This book also has a series of spells and incantations that the average person seeking to try witchcraft might not be able do considering that the ingredients calls for things that one may not have or be able to find. Even then I really like this book and recomend it to one who wants to learn a little more about witchcraft.
great book with everything in it
i liked this book because it had information on everything you need to know to cast spells.i especially liked the love spells that were included in this book because the were very easy and very original.i would reccomend this book to anyone who is interested in historic witchcraft spells.it is also a great price.
