Frazer, a Scottish anthropologist, wrote this classic work on magic, mythology and religion in the late nineteenth century. This is the first abridged version, published by Macmillan in 1925. Frazer famously proposed that mankind evolves from magic through religious beliefs to scientific rationality. His controversial scrutiny of Christianity was excluded from this abridged edition. It was critically received by scholars, but widely read by many. Its influence was large, including on amongst others T S Eliot, Hemingway and Jung. Lovecraft mentions the book in The Call of Cthulhu. This is a very nice copy indeed. See all photos which are of the edition for sale. Uncut pages are clean and without marks, and scarcely any tanning on all but a couple of pages. Tissue paper separating first plate is intact. Boards are clean and tight with no give to the spine, just light age wear to edges and corners. Pp 763 with illustrations and book advertisements at rear. An excellent copy.
