Review
"For years I have been waiting for the perfect non-fiction book about vampires to come along-- and it finally has arrived... Professor Ashley is to be congratulated on breathing new life into an old subject and I recommend without reservation The Complete Book of Vampires to any and all interested in the genre." -- Lena Lapesan Middleton, Ph. D., Voices From The Vault, Winter 1999

"Ashley can express himself entertainingly... often balancing the frivolous and the erudite throughout the book." -- Margaret L. Carter, The Vampire's Crypt, Spring 1999
