Overview
The folklore of witchcraft and magic in England runs deep. Every corner of this country once had its wisewomen, those female practitioners of the cunning arts that would be approached to help with everything from childbirth and matters of love, to protection against bewitchment. Every place also had its suspected witches, those who could stop a cart horse in its tracks, prevent milk from churning, and turn into hares to run around and frustrate their neighbours.
This sequel to Of Doves & Ravens: The Witches and Wisefolk of Wales and the Borders, explores the magical and sometimes tragic stories of wisewomen and witches of England. From the legendary storm witches of Cornwall to the historical cunning women who roamed the Yorkshire moors selling fortunes at the markets of the nineteenth century, this book contains the often-misunderstood lore of those who were believed to have the ear of the Devil and those who fought against them.
