Robert Cochrane

Robert Cochrane was one of the most fascinating and enigmatic figures in the history of the modern witchcraft revival. He claimed a family witchcraft tradition going back to the 17th century and also claimed that he had been taught the Craft by a family member. He was in contact with leading occult figures in the sixties such as Bill Gray and claimed links with a number of hereditary groups in the UK. Describing himself, Cochrane wrote I come from the country of the oak, ash and thorn...I describe myself as a Pellar (Cornish term for rural healers) ...I am a member of the people of Goda - of the Clan of Tubal Cain This book contains information about Robert Cochrane, his coven - The Clan of Tubal Cain, their ritual, teachings and beliefs and his workings written by himself to Evan John Jones, with additional writings by Evan John Jones and editing by Michael Howard. The articles in this book form a fascinating overview of a unique form of traditional witchcraft.

Medieval Heraldry; Some Fourteenth Century Heraldic Works

a fascinating insight into one of the most controversial figures of modern witchcraft Silver Wheel Robert Cochrane is still one of the most controversial figures in contemporary witchcraft nearly 40 years after his death. This book details his letters dealing with magical/Craft topics written to Joe Wilson, founder of the 1734 Tradition in the USA, Norman Gills, a traditional witch and cunning man of the old type with Romany ancestry and William Bill Gray, well known in the 1960s as a writer on the Cabbala and a ceremonial magician. Although copies of some of these letters have been passed around and broadcast on the Internet over the years, they have become jumbled and as a result all kinds of misinformation has arisen about their origin and authorship. In 2001 Cochrane s surviving widow legally handed over the copyright of all his correspondence, writings, artwork and articles to Evan John Jones who was a member of Cochrane s coven in the 1960s and is the past magister of the Clan of Tubal Cain. The decision was taken to publish these letters, except for a few of a very personal nature, together with notes to explain their contents and place them in their historical context - this book is the result.
