In 1662, Amy Denny and Rose Cullender were accused of witchcraft, and, in one of the most important of such cases in England, stood trial and were hanged in Bury St Edmunds. A Trial of Witches is a complete account of this sensational trial and an analysis of the court procedures, and the larger social, cultural and political concerns of the period. In a critique of the official process, the book details how the erroneous conclusions of the trial were achieved. The authors consider the key participants in the case, including the judge and medical witness, their institutional importance, their part in the fate of the women and their future careers. Through detailed research of primary sources, the authors explore the important implications of this case for the understanding of hysteria, group mentality, social forces and the witchcraft phenomenon as a whole.

Witches and demons aren't real, are they? And isn't Satan off in some dark corner or alley somewhere? That's what Rhonda Dippon thought before she met the witch who asked her this question: Do you believe in the power of Satan? Rhonda used Tammy's question to witness to her about One more powerful than Satan-Jesus. When Tammy tried to break free from the bondage of witchcraft, Rhonda was thrust into the spiritual battle between darkness and light. This story brings the reader along on Rhonda's sometimes terrifying and always stretching journey into the darkness of the occult. But it also draws the reader into her growing revelation of the Holy Spirit's power and how He equips Christians with spiritual armor to stand in the midst of the battle and overcome harassment from evil foes. The Holy Spirit turned her from being naive into being a threat to Satan's work.
