{"product_id":"letters-on-demonology-and-witchcraft-walter-scott-9781718888128","title":"Letters on Demonology and Witchcraft","description":"The notion that witchcraft faded away with the onset of the scientific revolution is entirely mistaken. Sir Walter Scott wrote this volume for his son-in-law \u0026amp; biographer J. G. Lockhart. It stands in the grand tradition of writing on witchcraft \u0026amp; suggests that magic was alive \u0026amp; well in 19th-century Scotland, as contemporary newspaper reports confirm. Carefully researched, alive with stories drawn from his own \u0026amp; contemporaries' experience, \u0026amp; ranging in subject matter from ghosts \u0026amp; fairies to witches \u0026amp; astrologers, the  Letters' inform, enliven, \u0026amp; entertain as they try to wed 19th-century skepticism with evidence which contradicts it. Letters has been a major source of reference ever since it was published.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter Scott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1718888120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781718888128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.53d","brand":"Walter Scott","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068913479935,"sku":"9781718888128","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bb86ccfa-013a-4b59-a198-9595f89261f6.jpg?v=1685421727","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/letters-on-demonology-and-witchcraft-walter-scott-9781718888128","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
