Sabine Baring-Gould's work on lycanthropy and the legends of the werewolves is probably the most detailed on the market. She goes back deep into the history, tries to share knowledge on the evolution of the legends and expresses her views on modern-day werewolves' talks.
Über Sabine Baring-Gould
Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924), a scholar, Reverend, and author, produced more than 1,240 publications during his lifetime! He is perhaps best known as a hymn writer (he wrote the hymns “Onward, Christian Soldiers” and “Now the Day is Over,” among many others), but he definitely considered his crowning achievement to be his collections of folk songs from the townspeople of Cornwall and Devon. His studies of folklore and folk music actually lead to the creation of The Book of Were-Wolves (1865), the book where “The Werewolf of the North” was originally published. The Book of Were-Wolves remains an important study of lycanthropy even today.
