Historia Amoris is a comprehensive exploration of the concept of love throughout history, written by Edgar Saltus. The book delves into the origins of love in ancient times, tracing its evolution through various cultures and societies.

He also explores the darker side of love, including obsession, jealousy, and violence. The book features a wide range of historical figures, from Cleopatra to Napoleon, and draws on literature, art, and philosophy to provide a rich and nuanced understanding of the complex nature of love.
