The first serious academic study of lycanthropy and "blood-lust" written in English.
The Book of Were-Wolves, one of the most frequently cited studies of lycanthropy by Sabine Baring-Gould, was first published in 1865, and draws upon a vast body of observation, myth, and lore.
Combining a wide variety of tales and research, it explores the tradition of werewolves as a widespread and persistent theme throughout history.
While the book's content veers towards cannibalism more than lycanthropy, it's a fascinating insight into various werewolf myths and legends and the attempt of then contemporary society to rationalise the mythology with the growing recognition of mental illness.
