Has anyone heard of this book? It has been in my family for a while, it is supposed to be a compendium of the weird and wonderful. I read it as a kid unknowingly. I recently dug it out and recognised a wealth of occult shit in it - really heavy stuff symbols for inducing trance (“the magic square of the moors”) anecdotes which seem to have some kind of relevance when taken in context and lots of numerology and very long words from different languages.
The author is Robert Ripley I wonder if anyone knows any more?
