Inhoud:

Published in 1849, this two-volume set examines how popular mythology kept alive beliefs about the occult, alchemy and the paranormal. Examining witchcraft, astrology, mesmerism, alchemy and much more, Henry Christmas shows how some of these beliefs were so entrenched that they were held almost as facts, even influencing rational thought.
