From the Publisher
P.G. Maxwell–Stuart’s history of the wizard from ancient times to the present shows just how extraordinary a character the wizard has proved to be—not merely a conjuring trickster or malicious egotist in league with Satan (though there have been plenty of both), but also a deeply religious person intent on using magic the better to understand the mind of God.
P.G. Maxwell–Stuart is Senior Lecturer in History at the University of St. Andrews. He is an acknowledged expert on the occult and his other books include Witchcraft and Witch Hunters, both published by Tempus.
Part of the Dark Histories series, edited by William Naphy, Senior Lecturer and Head of History at the University of Aberdeen.
