Description
|
|
|
|
Is magic real? Bookstore manager Elizabeth Ratisseau has encountered enough feats of mind control and future sight that she thinks it is indeed real for many, and here presents a collection of quotes and excerpts on magic, illuminated with beautiful art and illustration from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Ratisseau introduces us to Suleyman and Circe, Medea and Merlin—those who can see into the future or effect change contrary to the observed laws of nature through their knowledge and will—and observes the powerful belief in magic across cultures and eras.
