The Discouerie of Magic

Boing Boing linked to some articles about the original book of magic tricks, Hocus Pocus Junior, (1634). Hocus Pocus Junior was actually a remix of parts of Reginald Scot's The Discoverie of Witchcraft (1584), published 50 years earlier to debunk all sorts of magic.
The Discouerie of Witchcraft is available in a beautifully scanned copy of an 1886 reprint.
