Tarl Warwick

Folk Magic, Superstition, and Charms Tarl Warwick

This book is a collection of considerable occult miscellany ranging from weird legends involving animals and plants, to the construction and use of magical talismans, black magic involving the summoning of demons, and lore and folk rites revolving around gaining luck, predicting the future, or simple trickery and hexes. It is an exhaustive compilation of such arcana and includes passages from dozens of different books spanning many centuries. These works are sometimes academic, sometimes flat-out literal, sometimes bizarre, and always interesting. A list of works for further reading and an explanatory preface have been included.
