Witch Stories
Eliza Lynn Linton
A collection of stories in England, Scotland and thereabout based off court records for the charge of witchcraft during the witch delusion of the fifteenth and sixteenth century. (summary by a LibriVox Volunteer)
From the author: "I do not profess to have exhausted the subject, or to have made so complete a summary as I might have done, had I been admitted into certain private libraries, which contain, I believe, many concealed riches. But I had no means of introduction to them, and was obliged to be content with such authorities as I found in the British Museum, and the other public libraries to which I had access. I do not think that I have left much untold; but there must be, scattered about England, old MSS. and unique copies of records concerning which I can find only meagre allusions, or the mere names of the victims, without a distinctive fact to mark their special history. Should this book come to a second edition, any help from the possessors of these hitherto unpublished documents would be a gain to the public." (14 hr 39 min)
