What about starting with the following:

James Obelkevich, _Religion and rural society: South Lindsey, 1825-1875_,
Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1976.

or

Charles Mackay (1814-1889),
_Memoirs of extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds_
London, Office of the National Illustrated Library, 1852.

then going on to folk-lore journals
