The Lesser Key of Solomon

Description

This edition of the Lesser Key of Solomon is based on manuscripts from the British Museum, edited by two prominent occultists (mostly Mathers and probably Aleister Crowley). This is a considerably cleaned up and modernized version of the Lesser Key, which is obviously intended to be used as a working document for serious magicians, rather than a rigorous transcription of the source manuscripts. However, the information presented here is linked with the other Goetic grimoires and this version is considered one of the best of this literature. Also available on this site is The Greater Key of Solomon the King. This book has 104 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1904. Production notes: This ebook of The Lesser Key of Solomon was published by Global Grey in 2020.
