1612: the Lancashire Witch Trials: A New Guide by Christine Goodier Paperback – 29 Nov. 2011

The witch trials have been a interest of my for a long time, living in lancashire i have been to thevplaces in this book, but this is about the trials of the pendel witches who were hsnged in ,1612 there is a part for every witch what she did just fantastic, my information and my own thoughts of were they witches or really old people begging for some money to eat, in such a bleak and cold place to live, give it a read, you will find it worth reading

Arrived on time but was a little disappointed that one of the last pages was sealed within the staple, looks like a production error,had to tear the page to open, would have been nice to have been made aware of this before buying,as once I teared it I couldn't return it, the book it's self is a lot smaller than expected but ok and really informative information

Good read. Clear and simple facts.

Excellent short book covering the key points of the Pendle Witch Trials. A very interesting, if rather chilling period of our social history. Sufficient in itself, or as a way in to more detailed study.

This is a really interesting book. I have heard of the Pendle hill witches but not read about them. What is sad is that they could have been innocent.This book leaves it for you to decide.

Only a short volume but with a new slant on an old story. I do not agree with her conclusions, I think the two families would have been in receipt of several asbos if they were alive now. Their neighbours saw an opportunity to rid themselves of a troublesome lot and took it.

At last, someone who like me believes the Pendle witches were innocent. Very gripping read. The magistrates were the real evil here in my opinion. Recommend.
