The history of American witches is way weirder than you ever imagined. From bewitched pigs hell-bent on revenge to gruesome 20th-century murders, American Witches reveals strange incidents of witchcraft that have long been swept under the rug as bizarre sidenotes to history.
On a tour through history that's both whimsical and startling, we'll encounter 17th-century children flying around inside their New England home "like geese". We'll meet a father-son team of pious Puritans who embarked on a mission that involved undressing ladies and overseeing hangings. And on the eve of the Civil War, we'll accompany a reporter as he dons a dress and goes searching for witches in New York City's most dangerous neighborhoods.
Entertainingly listenable and rich in amazing details often left out of today's texts, American Witches casts a flickering torchlight into the dark corners of American history.

I usually don't write reviews but I read several negative comments about this book having nothing to do with modern witchcraft or Wicca in the United States and they're right. Most witches are not Wiccan. Wicca is super new to the scene. There are so many paths and practices that predate it by millennia. It's creation is credited to a couple of English men in the late 1800s and early 1900. It was likely inspired by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn an occult society which formed in 1887. They're fascinating. If you find books like this interesting I recommendreadingabout them. This is a history of witches in America. Wicca is very firmly new age and came after the last witch trial in the United States.
