Why don't you give exact delivery time?

Long description:
Winner of the The Lord Ruthven Assembly Award for Non-Fiction 2024
This Handbook MRW is a unique encompassing overview of the figure of the vampire. Not only covering the list of usual suspects, this volume provides coverage from the very first reports of vampire-like creatures in the 17th century to film and media representations in the 21st century. The Palgrave Handbook of the Vampire shows that what you thought you knew about vampires is only a fraction of the real and fascinating story.
