When bigotry and power mania take control, disaster always follows for subjugated persons - even when the power is wielded by the Church.
Witchcraft was viewed as devil-worship. Between 1450 and 1750, 100,000 people were accused, subject to the most bestial tortures and usually executed. Witches examines the wildfire-spread of witch-hunting across Europe and America, revealing the disturbing and brutal realities of these witch hunts and their roots in misogyny and religious persecution.
It includes:
- Letters and trial testimonies from those charged with witchcraft, as well as some from self-proclaimed witches
- Biographic detail of key witch hunters, such as Matthew Hopkins (the so-called "Witchfinder General"), who was responsible for hundreds of executions
- Accounts of famous witch trials, from Chelmsford to Salam
