Alright but not memorable. I wish it had new illustrations instead of recycling them from other HP books. (

My favorite bits were the annotations and illustrations by J. K. Rowling. Still waiting on the actual textbook "A History of Magic" though... Not to mention "Hogwarts, A History." (

Not many books make me quite so happy as those which explore the Harry Potter universe, and this one was no exception. It was a little bit of a tease though, because I know that the fullsize exhibition book from the British Library has way more content and commentary on the history behind the Harry Potter series and that the real exhibition can't quite be duplicated. Oh well, on to reading the full book soon enough! (

This highly designed book is a walk through the British Library's exhibition, Harry Potter: a journey through a History of Magic. Very well put together, the exhibition explores the historical sources for the magic found in J.K. Rowling's books through artifacts from the British Library's collections, and a few other museums. The sections are based on the Hogwarts curriculum: Potions and alchemy, Herbology, Charms, Divination, Defense against the Dark Arts, and Care of Magical Creatures. A fun and informative romp. (

Some of the "sources" selected seemed, odd. And there was way too many pages spent on Divination. That's just my opinion o'course. ;) BUT, all of the handwritten notes, never-before-seen original manuscript pages, and original illustrations by Rowling made this worth the read. I'd buy a copy of this book for those alone.

Recommended for diehard Harry Potter fans.
