Okkultisme. Varulve. First edition. 8vo. Original cloth. Bound in original green cloth with gilt lettering to spine and black lettering with illustration of werewolf on front boards. Very tight, previous owner's name. Paraphrasing the book's preface.''From the abundant records and traditions dealing with the curious belief that certain men and women can transform themselves into animals, the author has collected a number of instances and examples which throw fresh light on the subject both from the point of view of folklore and occultism'' There are chapters on the ''Bush-Soul," on human souls in animal bodies, on animal dances, the "Were-Wolf Trials," on witches, on cat and cock phantoms, on the "Phantasmal Ghost" as well as bird-women. The book is uncommon without a jacket, it is genuinely rare with one.
