A collection of rare and curious tracts on witchcraft and the second sight; with an original essay on witchcraft

This compilation brings together older texts on witchcraft and second sight, accompanied by an editorial essay that frames them for modern readers. It is historically significant as a preservation of rare sources and as a window into early modern beliefs about vision, prophecy, and magical practice.

David Webster of Edinburgh appears as a compiler rather than a major original author, and is associated with the production or collection of religious, philosophical, or esoteric materials. Further biographical detail is limited in readily accessible reference sources.
