Photographs of one hundred objects from Cornwall's Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, accopanied by informative texts from Sara Hannant and Museum director Simon Costin, as well as an introduction by the leading historian of British witchcraft and magic, Ronald Hutton.
100 objects, exuding magic and mystery, emerge from the darkness of Cornwall's much loved Museum of Witchcraft and Magic in this book of haunting photographs. Artist and photographer Sara Hannant has captured the very essence of these carefully selected artefacts, which include wax dolls, wands, statues, daggers, pendants, robes and amulets, all used in the practice of witchcraft and magic. Some have been displayed at the museum for years, others have long been hidden in its archives. Images are accompanied by informative text from museum director Simon Costin.
