This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legends of wolf-men exist in the beliefs of almost all peoples and cultures. The terror of werewolves reached a climax in the late Middle Ages when Kramer’s Malleus Maleficarum (Hammer of Witches) linked the creatures to religious heresy, Satanism, and witchcraft. He described the wolf-man transformation as the result of malevolent witchcraft and presented shapeshifting as a common, demonic practice. Baring-Gould’s study on werewolves successfully manages to compress an enormous span of historical material into his work. The book is valuable to academics, those interested in folklore, and any wishing to learn more about the occult.

Book excerpt: "Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924) was a prolific writer, priest, and an eclectic scholar. He considered collecting folk songs and lore to be among his greatest achievements. His studies of folklore led him to delve into the study of werewolves and why superstitions about lycanthropy persisted over the ages in so many cultures. In addition to providing a history of the subject in this book he also recounts in detail the story of the Maréchal de Retz, who was executed in 1440 for the serial murders of children but was also suspected of being a werewolf. This work is one of the most frequently cited studies on the subject. Bound in the original red publisher's cloth with ornate gilt title to spine and gilt ornament with figure of a wolf on the front cover." -- description from The Kelmscott Bookshop, bookseller.

Book excerpt: ...A fascinating and exhaustive historical survey and critical analysis of the legend of the were-wolf, including actual trials and events from history. Author Sabine Baring-Gould created a foundation work of modern supernatural lore when he published his definitive Book of Were-wolves in 1865. The book is a fascinating survey of were-wolf lore from the Greek and Roman era to the mid-nineteenth century. Baring-Gould cites hundreds of sources as he builds his case for the "reality" of were-wolverie. His approach to the subject is analytical and modern. His conclusions are extraordinary. Thirty years before Jack the Ripper, he concluded that were-wolves are what the modern era would come to know as serial killers or sexual psychopaths. Using the best psychological, sociological, historical, anthropological, mythological and medical theories and ideas of his day, he uncannily identified several key characteristics of these killers. And his conclusions have withstood the test of time. Baring-Gould takes the the reader on an intriguing journey through a poorly understood and dark side of legend, history and human nature.

This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is one of the finest ever penned on the subject of lycanthropy and werewolf lore. Written in the mid 1800s by the rather eccentric Sabine Baring-Gould, it covers more than 1,000 years of lore from a half dozen paths- the berserker of Norse lore, French mythology, and then-modern anecdotes of cannibalism and madness. Not relegating the werewolf just to a secular and skeptical study, nor simply to spiritual banter, Baring-Gould manages to compress an enormous span of historical material into his work; a work which is no doubt of value to the academic and those involved with the occult at the same time.
