History

Wanderings with Werewolves was one of the books Lockhart assigned to students in his Defence Against the Dark Arts classes.^[1]

Lockhart states in chapter twelve, his ideal birthday gift would be harmony between all magic and non-magic people.^[2] The book is mainly about Lockhart saving a village from werewolves. However, the real person who saved the village was "some ugly old Armenian warlock."^[3]

Behind the scenes

• At one point in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Lockhart mistakenly refers to this book as Weekend with a Werewolf. This error is corrected in later printings of the book.
