The first book about the witch hunts in the town of Überlingen. A contribution to local history and to the history of magic. The book covers the entire period of the witch hunts in the region (15th century to 17th century) plus the vesitges of witch beliefs that survived into the 20th century. This approach that combines history in a narrower sense with folklore is a unique contribution to the historiography of the German witch hunts. The book is largely based on original research and a variety of archival sources.
