/AE News Articles/ - SOUTHBOROUGH, MA, July 24, 2008 - Harvest Shadows Publications is publishing the book as it was published back in 1973, with the language, observations, and commentary intact. Even the back cover photo is from that era, aiding the reader in slipping back to the mid-70s, which many will remember as an exciting time for discovery of ancient knowledge and unseen realms. The cover alone has been updated in tribute to the importance of this work.
The foreword to this new edition puts it in modern perspective, stating, "The small book you are now holding in your hands was an early effort by one of the first publicly announced practitioners to contribute to a fuller picture of the witch, and of witchcraft. The text provides samplings of how witchcraft and folk-magic manifested themselves, over many years, within the borders of Yorkshire."
This is a limited, numbered edition, printed in the United States. It is being printed in its original format as a small-sized paperback. It was originally published by Dalesman Books, Yorkshire in 1973.
A fascinating collection of folklore and history of witchcraft, it describes customs, legends, spells, beliefs, and even contained a section on herbal cures with information on over thirty herbs.
