About this product

Product Information

Salem witchcraft will always have a magnetic pull on the American psyche. During the 1692 witch trials, more than 150 people were arrested. An estimated 25 million Americans-including author Diane Foulds-are descended from the twenty individuals executed. What happened to our ancestors? Death in Salem is the first book to take a clear-eyed look at this complex time, by examining the lives of the witch trial participants from a personal perspective. Massachusetts settlers led difficult lives; every player in the Salem drama endured hardships barely imaginable today. Mercy Short, one of the bewitched girls, watched as Indians butchered her parents; Puritan minister Cotton Mather outlived all but three of his fifteen children. Such tragedies shaped behavior and, as Foulds argues, ultimately played a part in the witch hunt's outcome. A compelling who's who to Salem witchcraft, Death in Salem profiles each of these historical personalities as it asks: Why was this person targeted?

  • great aftermath history

    Because it gives you a history of the accused as well as the accusers and everyone else has to what happened to them after the trails were over and life went on. Something i really don't get from any of the other books i've read.
