Description

“This is a detailed, scholarly treatise on witchcraft on the Rio Grande, past and present. The author first surveys briefly the history of witchcraft in Europe and then describes how witchcraft beliefs and practices were brought to the New World and combined with indigenous beliefs about the supernatural. Included are accounts of witch-hunts and witchcraft crazes from the seventeenth century to the twentieth. Pueblo, Zuni, Navajo, and Apache witchcraft are all discussed.”-Kliatt
