The Magic of the Horse Shoe is far more than a single-issue title. Lawrence' greatest work, here, delves deep into folklore in general, from ancient to modern and in multiple continents. This book contains significant inclusions regarding luck (and customs associated with the concept), the spiritual use of salt and its origins, and a bit of numerology after a fashion. It has as well interesting primary sources quoted here, dealing with things as strange as the habit of medieval people to put animals on trial.

A fascinating 1899 work tracing the origins of common superstitions through time and civilizations, tracking how they evolvedSuperstitions still have a firm hold in cultures all across the world, but where did so many of them come from, and how do myths and beliefs differ from country to country? This 1899 gem sets out to determine just that, tracing superstitious origins across the world from ancient Egypt to Viking Norway to the Asian dynasties. Find out why people throw salt over their shoulder, why you should never open a theater on Friday in France, whether it is luckier to sneeze toward the left or the right, and why the number 13 is considered so unlucky. Readers of this book will finally be able to answer such important questions as whether a horseshoe on the door can protect from plague and why people say "bless you" after a sneeze.
