About This Item
Davies notes that human sacrifice is a common heritage of mankind, present in practically all societies. Here, the author charts the story of human sacrifice from ancient history to the present day. Along the way he corrects some of the common misconceptions in this remarkable tale.
A good copy. Pages are tanned and naturally age worn. Cloth boards are tight and clean. DJ is unclipped but has the remains of a promo sticker on the flap. Some shelf wear but generally good, and very good in the main front, spine and rear areas. All now covered in professional clear removable book cover. 320pp with index, bibliography and B&W illustrations
