From the wulver of Shetland to the wolf-priests of Ossory, the shape-shifting beast has haunted these islands for centuries - and here that native lore is gathered and weighed with a scholar's care.

Drawn from Montague Summers' landmark study The Werewolf (1933), this volume assembles the evidence for lycanthropy across England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, tracing it through chronicle, legend, trial record, and rural superstition. Augustus Montague Summers (1880 - 1948) was an English author and clergyman celebrated for his earnest studies of witches, werewolves, and vampires, all of which he held to be quite real; in 1928 he produced the first English translation of the notorious witch-hunters' manual, the Malleus Maleficarum.
