About the book

The Salem witch trials of 1692 were a notorious episode in colonial Massachusetts in which accusations of witchcraft led to arrests, trials and executions. An account of the crisis examines the religious beliefs, local tensions, testimony and legal procedures that allowed fear to spread through Salem Village and the surrounding communities, while considering why the prosecutions eventually collapsed and how the episode became a lasting symbol of mass accusation and injustice.
