Letters On Demonology And Witchcraft

Excerpt

Sir Walter Scott’s “Letters on Demonology and Witchcraft” were his
contribution to a series of books, published by John Murray, which
appeared between the years 1829 and 1847, and formed a collection of
eighty volumes known as “Murray’s Family Library.”  The series was
planned to secure a wide diffusion of good literature in cheap
five-shilling volumes, and Scott’s “Letters,” written and published in
1830, formed one of the earlier books in the collection.
