Pow-Wows, or Long Lost Friend

A Collection of Mysterious and Invaluable Arts and Remedies, for Man as Well as Animals

More about the book

The book features a collection of rural home remedies and folk invocations, rooted in the practices of a Pennsylvania Dutch healer from 1820. It explores the unique blend of Christian theology and shamanistic beliefs known as Pow-wow, which has its origins in German immigrant traditions rather than Native American culture. This 2017 reprint of the 1855 English translation captures the essence of folk-magic practices still observed in some rural Pennsylvania communities.
