Witchcraft: The History and Mythology
Author: Richard Marshall.
Format: 100 x 2166mm, 160 pages. Paperback with flaps.
Revised edition 2007

The subject of witchcraft has exerted its fascination throughout recorded history. In this absorbing volume, illustrated with woodcuts, photographs and paintings from around the world, are magical traditions, myths and legends from many cultures alongside a disturbing history of fear, ignorance, persecution and prejudice.

Richard Marshall†(is the author of Strange, Amazing and Mysterious Places (HarperCollins, 1992).

“I found this book extremely intelligently written. Mr. Marshall delves into the aspects of what truly happened during the ‘burning times’ but is able to remain somewhat detached. …The photographs are excellent. The history is well written without making the reader feel as though it is a text book. This is a great book for anyone interested in knowing the truth about witchcraft and its history.”
