Not counting the poorly executed Bridewall translation (London, 1845) or the heavily edited reprint by Golden Goblin Press (New York, 1909) there weren't likely to be more than a half dozen copies in existence by the 1930s. The book was widely suppressed, and after von Junzt's death in 1840 many people burned their copies. When his friend Alexis Ladeau managed to reassemble the fragments and read what had been written, he burned them and cut his own throat with a razor. The pages written in the last months of his life were found in pieces with his body after his death. Written by Friedrich von Junzt with the help of numerous "blood-curdling and partly-suspected sources" including the surviving members of the cult of Ghatanothoa the Unaussprechlichen Kulten (Nameless Cults) or the Black Book is an occult tome published in Düsseldorf in 1839. "Before the beginning of the history men remember, there are black eons of which it is perhaps better not to know." "Vor dem Anfang der Historie, die erinnern Menschen sich, gibt es schwarze Äonen, denen ist es vielleicht besser nicht zu wissen."
