But it is a very good and much appreciated book as well. It takes you through the history of magic. In that sense it is actually a great reference for those interested in historical topics and myths. The book makes an ideal great gift for muggles and budding wizards alike that want to solidify their base knowledge about magic. The 144 page book is filled with colourful illustrations and art. So it is all very nicely presented. This makes it a great addition to our daughter’s growing Harry potter collection and book shelf in particular. The book addresses ancients myths and mythical creatures, astronomers, mermaids, unicorns, medieval witchcraft and alchemy - all of course tying into to Harry’s world of magic. There is a whole background story about dragons and brooms. Then there are detailed explanations about Hogwarts classes like the Defence Against the Dark Arts, Divination and Herbs. Furthermore there are sketches and manuscripts from the grand wizard herself; J.K Rowling as well. So it is really a very rich, complete book. The book includes interactive instruction to create your own ‘magical ‘ potion like invisible ink as well. My Potter-crazed daughter wrote me a letter with this and I can confirm the text was absolutely invisible, as the included picture demonstrates. Note that it it was produced along with the British Library to support the exhibition Harry Potter: A History of Magic, we sadly missed that. However there was also a tv documentary that can be found online. Review: This book is stunning, fun and informative. - This is such a wonderful book full of wonderful snippets of information and beautiful illustrations. There are even some copies of script pages. This book cost me £7 and in all honesty it is worth so much more than that. This book, by the British Library is a stunning addition to any Harry Potter collection. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 234,279 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 17 in Travel Fiction for Young Adults 86 in School & Education Material for Young Adults 190 in Books & Libraries for Children | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,527 Reviews | ## Images ![Harry Potter - A Journey Through A History of Magic - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91s1VD3bNGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Herodotus eat your heart out *by D***. on 31 October 2020* This is a curious book, as everything about Harry Potter is curious.
