This review is from: Witchcraft In Early Modern Scotland: James VI's Demonology and the North Berwick Witches (University of Exeter Press - Exeter Studies in History) (Paperback)
Not much I can say that the product description doesn't. I just wanted to add my 5 stars to this excellent and superior effort. Be warned, this does not read as a popular history, but is rather a thoroughly academic investigation of the source materials in regard to the North Berwick Witch Trials whereby King James VI defended the royal houses of Denmark and Scotland from attack by conspiring witches. Fascinating stuff, but not recommended for those without prior foundation in the history of Scottish witchcraft persecutions. To that end, Enemies of God: The Witch-Hunt in Scotland is an equally excellent introduction. Enjoy!

This book was bought so I could write a term paper for school.
it's well written, good to read and has a lot of history in it. If you are a history buff this book would be a good one for your collection. |
