This book is a timely account of the key period in the history of English witchcraft. It looks at the tensions in church, state and society which caused witchcraft increasingly to be regarded as a threat and to be legislated against in the mid sixteenth century. It then traces the gradual onset of scepticism which led to the abolition of such legislature in the mid eighteenth century.
