The Mediaeval period also know as the dark ages in Europe, was a hotbed for superstition and witchcraft hunts. This book looks at the beliefs and fears of the mediaeval people and how that fear led to the witch hunts and the witch trials and burnings. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
