This book is a dramatic journey through thirteen witch trials across history. Exploring how witchcraft became feared, decriminalized, reimagined, and eventually reframed as gendered persecution, Marion Gibson takes on the intersections between gender and power, indigenous spirituality and colonial rule, and political conspiracy and individual resistance. Offering a vivid, compelling, and dramatic story, unspooling through centuries, about the men and women who were accused, "Witchcraft" empowers the people who were and are victimized and marginalized, giving a voice to those who were silenced by history.
