About this audiobook
"The Book of Ceremonial Magic" by Arthur Edward Waite was originally called "The Book of Black Magic and of Pacts". It was first published in a limited run in 1898, and distributed more widely under the title "The Book of Ceremonial Magic" in 1910.
"The Book of Ceremonial Magic" is an attempt to document many of the famous grimoires, explaining the history behind them and at the same time refuting many of the legends surrounding them. He then goes on to discuss the theology contained within the grimoires and finally goes on to synthesise the many famous grimoires into one complete system.
