"The Vampire: His Kith and Kin — Un abridged edition for the modern reader" brings back one of the strangest and most fascinating works ever written about vampire lore.
First published in 1928, Summers’s book wanders through folklore, history, superstition, alleged cases of vampirism, and the darker corners of European tradition. Summers himself was almost as extraordinary as his subject: scholar, clergyman, occultist — and a man who seemed perfectly at home among ghosts, witches, and vampires.
This new abridged edition preserves the most compelling parts of his classic work for contemporary readers.
