Richard L.T. Orth, "Folk Religion of the Pennsylvania Dutch: Witchcraft, Faith Healing and Related Practices"
English | ISBN: 1476672261 | 2018 | 269 pages | EPUB | 12 MB
For almost three centuries, the "Pennsylvania Dutch"-descended from German immigrants-have practiced white magic, known in their dialect as Braucherei (from the German "brauchen," to use) or Powwowing. The tradition was brought by immigrants from the Rhineland and Switzerland in the 17th and 18th centuries, when they settled in Pennsylvania and in other areas of what is now the eastern United States and Canada. Practitioners draw on folklore and tradition dating to the turn of the 19th century, when healers like Mountain Mary-canonized as a saint for her powers-arrived in the New World. The author, a member of the Pennsylvania Dutch community, describes in detail the practices, culture and history of faith healers and witches.

Stephen J. Pyne, "Fire: Nature and Culture "
English | ISBN: 178023046X | 2012 | 207 pages | EPUB | 23 MB
For over 400 million years, fire has been an integral force on our planet. It can be as innocent as a bonfire or as destructive and lethal as a wildfire. Human history is rife with fires that have leveled cities-the Fire of Moscow in 1812 that destroyed seventy-five percent of the city, the Great Chicago Fire in 1871 that took down 17,000 buildings, and the fire that obliterated San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake are just a few. Fire is a force of nature that can consume everything in its wake, and yet it also has tremendous powers of cleansing and renewal. At the end of the day, we can't live without it.
