Trick or Treat: A History of Halloween Paperback – Illustrated, 1 Sept. 2013

as expected

An extremely thorough and entertaining read, for those of us with an interest in the spookiest night of the year.

This is a very interesting and informative book - great for halloween enthusiasts like my boyfriend!!!

lovely book!

The book seems as thought it erases Canada entirely from the history of Halloween. The phrase 'trick or treat' (which the book uses as a title) originated in Canada, NOT the United States nor anywhere else. Guising also came to Canada first, from Scotland. It eventually found a following in the States.
