Book of Witches

Witchcraft from the classical world to the Salem trials and the modern seance - the trials, the confessions, the tortures and the credulity on both sides. Hueffer was Ford Madox Ford''s brother and wrote with the same eye for what people talk themselves into. This edition is bound with 56 plates of painting, among them works by Goya, Doré and Piero della Francesca, dating from 1470 to 1904.
