Thank you Bonnier Books for my beautiful copy of this wondrous book in exchange for a review! As a keen witch-history nerd, this book seemed to call my name. This beautifully presented book is filled with prepossessing illustrations, mythical magical tales and facts. Making non-fiction more accessible and readable for more readers is no easy feat. Kidd does this excellently. Presented in a way that intrigues and empowers the voices of those lost under the label of ‘witch', Kidd informs in a compelling way that puts this as one of my favourite on the subject. Use of Scottish dialect was a specific choice, that I can see as confusing at times, but with perseverance, there is much gold at the end of these chapters and in thus, the whole book.
