Abstract
archaeology of counter-witchcraft, and the author often cites the writing of specialists Ralph Merrifield, Timothy Easton and Keith Thomas throughout his writing.

Hoggard’s book is a strong foundation to encourage further research in this field of study and is written in a clear and accessible manner such that it can be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in the subject.
