Tabitha Stanmore
The Cunning People transports us to a time when magic was used to solve everyday problems—as well as some of deadly importance.
“A wonderful book, written with intelligence and vigor.” Malcolm Gaskill, author of The Desolation of All Witches
"Absolutely brilliant." Ian Mortimer, author of "The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England"
It's 1600, and your precious silver spoons have been lost, or maybe stolen. Maybe your child has a fever. Or you're facing adversity. Maybe you're looking for love or running away from a husband. What do you do? In medieval and early modern Europe, your first port of call might have been the wily folk: practitioners of magic who were a common, even essential, part of everyday life, in a time when the supernatural was surprisingly ordinary. Enchanting, thought-provoking, and based on original research, *Wicked Folk* is an expert historian's immersive reconstruction of a bygone world, as well as a commentary on the beauty and perplexity of human existence. “A truly remarkable and humane book.” —Ruth Goodman, author of *How to Be a Tudor*
"This book is full of vivid historical anecdotes, and is an intriguing insight into the lives of magical people of the past and the history of our superstitions today." - Marion Gibson, author of "The Magick"
“Brilliant... opens a window into another world.” - Tracy Borman, author of Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I
“Full of such magical tips and colorful stories... pulsating with action” - Kate Maltby, Financial Times
"Full of vibrancy and rich detail" - The New York Times
