This is a facsimile reprint of a 1619 chapbook by J Barnes, original printed by G Eld in London. Barnes' pamphlet on the Bottlesford witches is in three sections - an introduction describing magical practices of the Jacobean era; the story of the Bottlesford witches their trials; and a final part on the examinations of not only Joan, Margaret and Phillipa Flower but also three other women - Anne Baker, Joan Willimott and Ellen Greene - accused of witchcraft but whose eventual fate is unrecorded.
