About this ebook
This unusual book, documenting the trials for witchcraft conducted in Shetland and Orkney, one of the most remote and superstitious parts of the United Kingdom. This book is a brilliant insight into how far sensible people will go when scared by something they do not understand. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
