This study of male witches addresses incidents of witch-hunting in Britain and Europe, using feminist categories of gender analysis to critique the feminist agenda that mars many studies. Large numbers of men were accused of witchcraft in their own right, and in some regions more men were accused than women. The book advances a balanced and complex view of witch-hunting and ideas about witches in their gendered forms, and critiques historians' assumptions about witch-hunting, challenging the marginalization of male witches by feminist and other historians.
