Synopsis

This new and expanded second edition explores the life of the 16th-century "Blood Countess" of Hungary, Erzsébet Báthory.

Based on newly-found source material, translated into English for the first time, this book explores the actual life and trial of Countess Báthory, through letters, documents, and trial transcripts.
