One of the most famous and sought-after modern grimoires, by the enigmatic Jack Macbeth. According to the author the book contains “a most extreme ritual … that concerns shape-shifting / atavistic resurgence for the purpose of activating the darkling beast within each of us.” While clearly original in concept and construction, the book references Aleister Crowley and Andrew Chumbley, and has something of the literary flavor of Austin Osman Spare.  Book is in fine condition in fine leather wrap.
