Full Description
This was the first book to be published on popular American witchcraft. Newly revised for twenty-first-century readers, the author - an ordained but fallen exorcist - tells all about the evil eye, the queer eye, women and witch trials, the Old Religion, magic Christianity, Satanism, and New Age self-help. Jack Fritscher sifts through legends of sorcery and the twisted history of witchcraft, including the casting of spells, with a focus on the growing role of witchcraft in popular culture and its mainstream commercialization. As seriously historical as it is fun to read, there is no other book like it.
