Witchcraft "What an unsettling, surprising,
and scandalous . . . writer!" This was the first book to be published
on popular American witchcraft. Newly revised for twenty-first-century
readers, the author—an ordained but fallen exorcist—tells
all about the evil eye, the queer eye, women and witch trials,
the Old Religion, magic Christianity, Satanism, and New Age self-help. Jack Fritscher is the author of fifteen books and many articles on American popular culture. He was ordained an exorcist in 1963 by the Catholic Church, which later excommunicated him after he published his memoir-novel, What They Did to the Kid: Confessions of an Altar Boy. He is the founding San Francisco editor of Drummer magazine, and he has written the memoir-novel Some Dance to Remember and the biography Mapplethorpe: Assault with a Deadly Camera.
