close to the crashing waves of Boscastle Harbour in Cornwall, the Museum of Witchcraft & Magic contains one of the worlds most loved and most influential collection of magical objects. The museum has changed much during the sixty-plus years that it has been open, yet it retains the imprint of one man in particluar: its founder Cecil Williamson.
This book tells Williamson's story, and covers his life as a film-maker, an MI6 operative, and an owner and creator of several museums.
With a forward by Graham King - owner and Director of the Museum of Witchcraft 1996 - 2013
