1.0 out of 5 stars
the phantom world (1850),
By Diego de Udondo (Mexico) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Phantom World (Volume 2); Or, the Philosophy of Spirits, Apparitions, &c (Paperback)
A very poor edition of an important classic. Hard to read because of so many typos, side notes or foot notes in the middle of the main text and other editorial junk; because of this some of the Latin quotes and citations can only be read by an expert. Not worth the money.
