1893
David Nutt. London. 1893. First edition, limited to 550 copies only - of which 500 were for sale. Paperback with printed DW. 65 page introduction by Lang followed by the original text and title page in facsimile plus notes at the end. Wrapps browned at spine, covers slightly marked with small patch of rubbing to front panel. Very occasional light foxing to pages otherwise a clean and sound copy of a scarce item. In the late 17th century, a Scottish minister went looking for supernatural creatures of "a middle nature betwixt man and angel." Robert Kirk roamed the Highlands, talking to his parishioners and other country folk about their encounters with fairies, wraiths, elves, doppelgangers, and other agents of the spirit world. Magic was a part of everyday life for Kirk and his fellow Highlanders, and this remarkable book offers rare glimpses into their enchanted realm. Left in manuscript form upon the author's death in 1692, this volume was first published in 1815 at the behest of Sir Walter Scott. Lang's introduction to Kirk's extraordinary blend of science, religion, and superstition first appears in this edition. 77353
