Daemonologie - with Original Illustrations

Excellent release of this book
This is a good release to buy if you want to read this book. Includes all three parts + Newes From Scotland (with original illustrations), all in the original spelling. Very interesting read and is not actually "sexist" like some other reviewers has stated. The book describes both men and women involved in supposed witchcraft, necromancy, sorcery and other forms of demonic activity.

Which witch is which?!
Very useful for those who wish to invoke James I's policies on hags. Failing that, it makes a decent study document. Concise and to the point. An ideal tome for the witch finder in your family.

A classic look at witchcraft belief
Oh, how young kings often did things they would later wish to disassociate themselves with. This is another shining example of medieval misogyny at its finest, but at the same time, it is also an important tool for the witchcraft historian to help them understand the patterns of thought concerning sorcery and witchcraft at the time. Whilst this book, much like the Malleus, offers up some advice in the detection and persecution of witches that to out modern, 21st century eyes undoubtedly seems strange, unbelievable or just plain insane, it was taken very seriously at the time and does a lot to help us understand how witch persecution evolved in Europe over the centuries.I thought this was a good printing, with a nice cover and perfectly legible print. It was worth the money to buy it in paper format.
