A Dialogue Concerning Witches and Witchcrafts

A Dialogue Concerning Witches and Witchcrafts was a book written by George Gifford and published in 1593.[1] It 'is notable for its attention to the ministerial challenges posed by witch belief as well as for its entertaining dia- logue designed to appeal to a wide audience'.[2]

Gifford told the story of many alleged witches, including Feats, a reputed sorcerer in Elizabethan London, whose familiar spirit was a black dog named Bomelius.[3][4]
