2007 20pp Society for Esoteric Endeavour 4to hardback. Illustrated. Taffeta over padded boards, with pigskin leather label, housed in a specially-made linen cover secured with pigskin leather ties. Indentations on the taffeta on front board from pigskin ties (seen in all copies) else near fine.
 
Ltd. ed. 45/80. The first English translation (by Philippe Pissier) of the Grimoire pour Conjurer l'Esprit d'un Lieu, the only known copy of which is an 18th century manuscript held at the Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal. Unusually the manuscript contains specific instructions on the preparation of copies of the work, and this edition has been carefully prepared in accordance with these: having been consecrated with incense, bound in taffeta and wrapped in a cross (pouch) of pure linen.
 
While the grimoire itself is in some ways typical of the genre, it also contains a number of facets quite unique to this particular work - in particular with regard to the book itself: "Protection is sought from a demonic Trinity before Christian powers are used to evoke an infernal spirit, specially associated with the place of the working, into a piglet that is led into a magic circle where it is slain. This releases the spirit but it he is constrained within the circle until he signs the Grimoire of the title, which has been prepared according to certain specifications. The book is then treated like a child, being baptised with a godparent present and so forth. The text states that if you are in possession of the original Grimoire ..or one like it' then you do not have to perform the complete ritual but just read out the conjurations. The original spirit will then send one of his minions to assist you."
