The Tome known as ''The Ceremonial Book of Magic'', was written in 1910 by Arthur Waite. An early 20th Century Scholar on The Occult, Waite wrote The Book as a means to define the various misconceptions regarding The Subject, long held by many for Centuries. Waite claimed to have the largest ''collection'' of Classic Grimoires – which He used to ''prove or refute'' many claims regarding Magic and Demonology. The Book has been re-published MANY times since, and is still a popular Research source for Arcane Scholars.
