Werewolf Histories (Palgrave Historical Studies in Witchcraft and Magic) by Willem de Blecourt
Some of these papers were wonderful, while others were less so. It is a dense academic collection, however, and not meant for the layperson (no matter how much you love werewolves). My favorite essays were probably "Estonian Werewolf History" (chapter nine) and "The Werewolf in Nineteenth-Century Denmark" (chapter 10).

Witchcraft and Magic in Europe: The Twentieth Century (Athlone History of Witchcraft and Magic in Europe) by Willem de Blécourt
As with all of this series, useful and worth having (though they are expensive as these things go). Very useful. And the picture showing here is NOT for this volume, but for the previous one.
