Book Description
A Collection of Rare and Curious Tracts on Witchcraft and the Second Sight - Unknown - Excerpt: If we wish to form a just estimate of the human character in its progress through the various stages of civilization, from ignorance and barbarism, to science and refinement, we must search into the natural causes that actuate the human mind. The life of man is prolonged to a remoter period, but subjected to more casualities, and greater vicissitudes of fortune, than most other animals. From these causes arises his anxious solicitude about futurity, and an eager desire to know his destiny; and thus man becomes the most superstitious of all other creatures. In every nation there have been multitudes of oracles, augurs, soothsayers, diviners, fortune-tellers, witches, sorcerers, &c. whose business has been to communicate intelligence respecting futurity, to the rest of mankind.

Book Description
2,500 Adages Of Imam Ali - Unknown - This book contains 2,500 sayings of the Prophet Muhammad's son-in-law, Ali. The subjects of these sayings include things like: noble manners; eloquence; social relations; manners of speech; human nature; poverty; and bad habits. The Shia sect, one of the two main sects in Islam, see Imam Ali as being the successor to the Prophet, and believe that Muhammad named Ali as his successor. Sunni Muslims, on the other hand, believe that no-one was named and that Abu Bakr was the rightful heir to the Caliphate.
