London, T. and W. Boone, 1861. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A very good copy. Two volumes, complete. "A seriously odd-ball mish-mash of matter. The first volume includes many supernatural stories, sketches and extracts from other works and, according to the preface, serves as "the scaffolding, as it were, to the building that we openly display in our second volume", which is basically an account of fire-worship and of the Rosicrucians" [Locke, Spectrum III: p46]. Soem softening and bumping to the spine tips and corners, cloth a little dusty. Owner's name and some splitting to the hinges with the webbing showing. [11825, Hyraxia Books].
