Celebrating the symbolism, lore, and practical magic of the occult, the Pocket Book of Witches explores the craft throughout history and around the world. Witches lurk beneath the surface of every culture and age, viewed with fascination and fear in equal measure, revered as keepers of natural wisdom or persecuted as disciples of the Devil. Today, the practice of witchcraft is more popular than ever, whether in the guise of paganism, herbalism, Wicca, or the occult.

Packed with the finest historical artwork, fascinating folklore, and essential traditions, the book travels between cultures and continents to explore the origins, history, practices, powers, and perceptions of witches.
