About This Item
Nashville: Thomas Nelson Inc., 1972. 8vo size hardcover with dust jacket; 204 pages. From flap: "Primitive man lived in awe of the natural elements; modern man still has an irrational fear of the unknown. The name of this fear is superstition, and all of us are prone to it... Thorough research has produced this unique study of the subject, ranging from simple good-luck charms and the mysteries of astrology to the superstitious peculiarities of certain historical figures... Included, too, are superstitions from the worlds of theatre, gambling, sports, and the sea, ways to predict weather or to cure a cold, ritual of courtship and marriage, and beliefs connected with the greatest enigma of all - death." Ex-library with typical treatments, many blacked out; jacket covered with mylar. Several previously folded page corners and a small nick to mylar on back cover. Thanks for shopping with us. 100% of your purchase benefits charity and supports literacy and life-long learning.. Cloth. Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Library.
