The Book of Talismans, Amulets and Zodiacal Gems

by Kate Pavitt, William Thomas, Kate Pavitt, et al.

Book Overview

From remotest times, back even to the birth of humanity, Precious Stones and Talismans have been held in high estimation by all nations; the former, primarily because of their beauty, and the latter on account of their virtues, as transmitters of good luck and to avert misfortune. The association of Gems with power, civil and religious, has ever been noticeable; and to the fascination of antiquity may be added the allurement of mystery.
