## About this item

Scottish witches history book by Lily Seafield: a paperback that explains why Scotland pursued witches, for anyone curious about Scottish and European history. It traces how prejudice, discrimination, intolerance and fear took hold before and during the Reformation.

Its numbers are stark: 4000 people were accused of witchcraft, and 2000 were killed by strangulation at the stake, burning and drowning. The book names King James I and VI as leading a period of superstition, intolerance and killing. The paperback runs to 224 pages, measures 124 x 193 x 19 mm and was published on 14 Apr 2023 as a new edition.

Samhain and Halloween are a fitting time for this history, and the book sits well on a Witchcraft and Wicca shelf. Read Scottish Witches by Lily Seafield to see how fear and intolerance shaped Scotland's witch trials.
