Witchfinders, Paperback

Subtitled, A Seventeenth-Century English Tragedy. A spellbinding study of how Matthew Hopkins, the Witchfinder General, and John Sterne extended their campaign across East Anglia, driven by godly zeal. Exploring the anxiety and lawlessness of the times, and cheered on by ordinary folk, they extracted confessions of satanic pacts resulting in scores of executions.
