About this book

Superstition across many ages and peoples is gathered by James Grant, who says in his preface that the book rests on antiquarian research and nearly forty years of observation. Subjects include the laws against witches and their trials, mythology, days and weeks, miracles, Druids, demonology, magic and astrology, divination, signs and omens, amulets and charms, trials by ordeal, curses, and dreams and visions.

A final section looks at superstition in the nineteenth century. It was printed in Leith in Scotland.
