Witchcraft in the Middle Ages.
Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1979. Third Printing. Hardcover. Large octavo. xiv + 396pp. Gray cloth lettered in gilt and decorated in black on spine, bibliography and index. A nice hardcover reprint of this scholarly study of witchcraft in Europe from the fifth to fifteenth century, in which the author examines it as "a product of Christianity with its roots more in heresy than in the magic and sorcery that have existed in other societies." Just a hint of shelf wear, page edges darkened and lightly foxed, else a tight, clean VG+ copy in VG+ dust jacket. (Dust jacket is lightly rubbed and darkened overall, price clipped.
