How did ordinary people, caught up in the violent political and social dislocation of the English Revolution, perceive such astonishing events? The Battle of the Frogs & Fairford's Flies attempts to answer this question through a close study of some 500 newsbooks and pulp publications produced from 1640 to 1660. Like The Great Cat Massacre and The Cheese and the Worms, this fascinating and original work enters the world of enchanted belief, superstition, folk religion, and magic.
