The Book of Ceremonial Magic

Author(s): A. E. Waite

Occult

Occult historian A. E. Waite created this meticulously researched survey in order to unite and interpret the scattered and often-inaccessible details of magical traditions. Part I contains essential passages from Renaissance-era documents; Part II analyzes the texts from a modern perspective. A century after its debut, this volume remains among the best sources of information on casting spells, conjuring spirits, and other occult practices.
