Throughout history, humans have sought ways to connect with forces greater than themselves, express their deepest desires, and seek solutions to their problems. This quest for connection started thousands of years ago in Ireland when people wrote petitions, prayers, and supplications and placed them in trees. Wells were linked to these trees and eventually were believed to possess healing properties in conjunction with the trees. This book focuses on how the idea of the Clootie Trees and Holy Wells spread across the world and into the modern era.
