The Superstitions and Curious Beliefs of Old Sussex
England | South East | « Sussex | « Sussex (County)
Author: W.H. Johnson 118 pages paperback; illustrated Here’s a fascinating world of witchcraft; of spells and counter-spells; of so-called cunning men; of death omens; of girls conjuring the identity of their future husbands; of fishermen’s precautions against ill luck; of the fairies, always uncertain of temper; and of the Devil and all his nefarious ways. ‘Johnnie’ Johnson, well known for his many books on Sussex themes, here explores the mind-set of people whose lives were coloured by a richly woven tapestry of ancient beliefs that today seem outlandishly far-fetched but once gave ordinary lives their meaning.
