The Book Of Forbidden Knowledge: Black Magic, Superstitions, Charms, Divination, Signs, Omens, Etc. - Softcover
Synopsis
The Book Of Forbidden Knowledge is one of a number of manuscripts created between the end of the 1800s and the 1920s that include information on all areas of the occult, including mesmerism, ceremonial magic, the black arts, talismans, and more.
What's truly fascinating about this work is that all of the above and more are incorporated in one piece rather than individually. The Book of Forbidden Knowledge, which contains everything from fortune telling to folk healing, is likely better classified as a modern grimoire than most contemporary works of comparable provenance; the paper covers of any of a number of rival Victorian and Edwardian era titles.
