On page 110, the author refers to Jos. Ennemoser as the author of The Phantom World. In fact, the cited passage comes from a work by Augustine Calmet, which was translated into English by William Howitt as The Phantom World; Ennemoser quotes from it in his book The History of Magic. This error has not been corrected.
Irregularities in hyphenation and capitalization have not been corrected. Antiquated or misspelled place names have been left as in the original.
