I thought to myself: that's certainly in public domain by now... And 'lo and behold, Sacred Texts delivers. Murray seemed to have a particular loathing for Scott, so my theory is that we should pay more attention than usual to him.
It also took me forever to find a copy of The Secret Commonwealth. And I still haven't found a physical copy of Aradia that I've liked. Bah. If I made more money, I'd probably just buy more books...
EDIT: “Some communication between the spiritual world, by the union of those termed in Scripture “sons of God” and the daughters of Adam, still continued after the Fall, though their inter-alliance was not approved of by the Ruler of mankind. We are given to understand – darkly, indeed, but with as much certainty as we can be entitled to require – that the mixture between the two species of created beings was sinful on the part of both, and displeasing to the Almighty.”

Don't hang out on top of Black Towers. You almost always end up having sex with a succubus or an incubus. And, you know, that's... not good. I think.

The copy of Aradia I have (listed on Librarything) is a pretty decent one. It's no frills, and I believe costs around $12 new.
Amazon has a newer edition up for like $3 used.
If printer ink weren't the sublimated blood of snow-leopards harvested by blind virgins I'd suggest printing your own copy.
@Scylla: I want a hardback, leather-bound copy of Aradia. Seriously. If I have to rebind the book, so be it.
@faust - Aha, that could pose problematic, at least in the commercial world.
I do bookbinding as a hobby, its honestly not that difficult once you get the technique lodged in at the right angle. And it's extremely rewarding. Getting it printed correctly is the ass-tastic part.
I've toyed with the idea of doing a hardcover, (goat) leather edition of the Keys of Solomon, I imagine it's that same striving for quality.

Heh... well, at least it's pleasurable.
The Black Towers: Is it really necessary to travel that far? That's like a road trip to Myrtle Beach when our town's wrong side of the tracks is only 15 miles away.
PS: I actually mean that question not just as a joke.
