This in-depth and comprehensive resource explores the intersection of religion, politics, and the supernatural that spawned the notorious witch hunts in Europe and the New World. Witch Hunts in the Western World traces the evolution of Western attitudes toward magic, demons, and religious nonconformity from the Roman Empire through the Age of Enlightenment, placing these chilling events into a wider social and historical context. Brian A. Pavlac discusses witch hunts in fascinating detail by region, highlighting the cultural differences of the people who incited them as well as the key reforms, social upheavals, and intellectual debates that shaped European thought. Vivid accounts of trials and excerpts from the writings of both witch hunters and defenders throughout the Holy Roman Empire, France, the British Isles and colonies, Southern Europe, Scandinavia, and Eastern Europe bring to life one of the most intriguing and shocking issues in Western history. Accessible narrative chapters make this a fascinating volume for general readers while offering a wealth of historical information for students and scholars. Features include a complete glossary of terms, a timeline of major events, recommended reading selections, an index, and illustrations.

Fantastic buy! This contains everything I need (minus a phone), and because it zips up, I know everything is secure. I recommend this product.

Exactly what I needed for traveling!
This Amazon Basics Travel Passport Wallet Organizer is amazing value for the price. It has multiple easily accessible slots & pockets that can be used for credit cards, boarding passes, receipts, pens, and currencies if traveling internationally. The wallet has a zipper which can safely secure folded documents such as immunization records, marriage certificates, and citizen forms if needed. The functional design is larger than I anticipated and the material feels well-made, solid, and looks nice. I could not fit the wallet in my pocket, but it easily fits into a backpack or purse. If I happen lose this or misplaced this one, I will be purchasing this again.

Great Hold-All
This seems to be well-made and I like the configuration. It should hold passport, ID, credit cards, cash and any travel docs with no problem. It is a bit larger than I expected, however, so that will have an impact on what sort of purse, belt bag, or etc. I use to carry it. My biggest issue with this and ANY RFID blocking wallets/purses/etc. is that I wish the manufacturers would add a sewn in tag or imprint on the product itself that SAYS it's RFID blocking. After time goes buy it gets hard to remember which items in your travel stash are or aren't. I've used a Sharpie to mark this one, but it would be nice if the manufacturer did so professionally.
