Philosopher and writer William Godwin (1756–1836) examines the issue of the supernatural in this work of 1834. Beginning in the Ancient Middle East and Greece, surveying the Christian era in Europe, and ending with the New England witch trials, Godwin gives sketches of historical figures associated with the supernatural.
