The Lancashire Witch Craze: Jennet Preston and the Lancashire Witches, 1612 - Jonathan Lumby

The Lancashire Witch Craze: Jennet Preston and the Lancashire Witches, 1612


'Jennet Preston lies heavy upon me, ' cried Thomas Lister on his deathbed. We are told that his corpse bled when she touched it ... and Jennet was convicted of witchcraft. Was there really a satanic coven on Pendle side? Or was Jennet framed by Lister's son? And were the other 'witches' actually caught up in a much broader and more disturbing pattern of religious persecution? In this best-selling account, Jonathan Lumby presents a remarkable series of new insights. By placing the events in their wider European context, he explains far more satisfactorily than ever before exactly why these disturbing events occurred.
