And exquisite find. Very fine antiquarian condition. $1100. Concerning Le Veritable Dragon Rouge Le Veritable Dragon Rouge, or the True Red Dragon, is a grimoire known by 2 principal editions. The first is Le Dragon Rouge, ou l'Art de Commander les Esprits célestes, aériens et infernaux and makes no claim to antiquity on its title page.

The Grand Grimoire The True Red Dragon, for the most part, is identical to another, better known grimoire, called The Grand Grimoire. In his Book of Black Magic and Pacts, renowned occult Arthur Edward Waite has this to say: "The Grand Grimoire [or Red Dragon] is the most fantastic of [the Black Magick Grimoires] and is introduced with great pomp by its editor, Antonio Venitiana del Rabina, a personage whose name indicates the Italian origin of the work. By reason of its rarity and the great request in which it is, we are informed that it must be regarded as the veritable Magnum ...
