From 1563 to 1736 Scotland put thousands of women to death for
witchcraft. Their supposed crimes have much to tell us about
attitudes to women in the past, and in the present day. This book
introduces sixteen women who lost their lives or lived in the long
shadow of the persecutions. 'Witches' who, like MARGARET AITKEN,
confessed, implicated others, even aided the hunters before they
were burned. Nonconforming women like MARY MACLEOD, who saw their
reputations tarnished when they did not bend to society's
expectations. Creatures of the imagination, like Robert Burns's
NANNY, who embody deep-seated associations between womanhood and
the occult. Weaving fiction with the facts where these are known,
We Are All Witches invites the reader to explore the forces at work
in one of the darkest episodes of Scotland's history and consider
their echoes in the present day.
