Granted this book has more pictures than words, but if you’re interested in Demonology and Religious art, then this is the book for you. If you are looking for a book with written information on Devils, Demons or Witchcraft then I suggest another book as this book has little text. But the pictures are extremely interesting and it was exactly what I was looking for.

Richly illustrated collection of woodcuts and engravings covering all aspects of the subject, from Witchcraft, Demonology through to the Danse Macabre and Momento Mori; several of the illustrations i hadn’t seen before! As with all the Dover Publications, superb quality paper and binding. Overall excellent value for money and highly recommended :-))
