The Magic Island Av William Seabrook

Praised by the New York Evening Post as "the best and most thrilling book of exploration," this 1929 volume offers firsthand accounts of Haitian voodoo and witchcraft rituals. Journalist and adventurer William Seabrook introduced the concept of the walking dead ― zombies ― to the West with this illustrated travelogue. Includes 20 line drawings by Alexander King, a new Foreword by George A. Romero (legendary director of Night of the Living Dead), and a new Introduction by Joe Ollmann.
