Such works are the Black Books - the Books of the Magicians. They contain spells, charms and the methods of making powerful talismans; the rituals of raising spirits through the Magical Circle - the whole gamut of supernatural power and its attaining. To this very day, copies of these Grimoires (the 'Grammers' of Sorcery) are rare indeed. While books by occultist writers based to some extent upon parts of certain grimoires continue to appear, yet the actual sources have never been made available for study and comparison. The present work contains not one, but all the major source-books of magical arts; in most cases translated from French, Latin, Hebrew and other tongues, annotated and commented upon - and fully illustrated by numerous diagrams, signs and characters. The Secret Lore of Magic includes the entire text of four books of the Secrets of Albertus Magnus, the Book of Spirits, the Almadel, the Book of Power, the Clavicle and the Testament, the Grimoire of Honorius the Great, and the process of the Black Pact as given by the True Grimoire and the Great Grimoire. Nothing even approaching such a survey of the fundamental magical literature has ever before been made, in any language. - - - + + + + { ( [ [+] ] ) } + + + + - - - *** Please Note: Whilst free international postage is included, this does not extend to any customs charges, or any other import duties for your country.
