West Country Witches
Michael Howard
The West Country of England, encompassing the counties of Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Wiltshire, and Dorset, is a region rich in legend, lore and folk magic. Including in these practices was the diabolical art of witchcraft, empowered by traffic with demons and land-spirits, and heir to such practices as 'owl-blinking', or casting a curse by means of the Evil Eye. This second volume of Michael Howard's 'Witchcraft in the British Isles' series examines the historical witchcraft practices and characters of the West Country, their connection with the land, and their enduring legacy in the modern era. This second edition is newly designed and includes 10 illustrations.--Publisher
