Synopsis
Between June 10 and September 22, 1692, nineteen people were hanged for practicing witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts. One person was pressed to death, and over 150 others were jailed, where still others died. The Story of the Salem Witch Trials is a history of that event. It provides a much needed synthesis of the most recent scholarship on the subject, places the trials into the context of the Great European Witch-Hunt, and relates the events of 1692 to witch-hunting throughout seventeenth century New England. This complex and difficult subject is covered in a uniquely accessible manner that captures all the drama that surrounded the Salem witch trials. From beginning to end, the reader is carried along by the author'e(tm)s powerful narration and mastery of the subject. While covering the subject in impressive detail, Bryan Le Beau maintains a broad perspective on events, and wherever possible, lets the historical characters speak for themselves. Le Beau highlights the decisions made by individuals responsible for the trials that helped turn what might have been a minor event into a crisis that has held the imagination of students of American history., Between June 10 and September 22, 1692, nineteen people were hanged for practicing witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts.

- e***m (36)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopGood was a decent description of the condition of this used book. It does have quite a bit of underlining and notes in it by previous readers. Nothing that obscures any of the text though. Even though it was sent by media mail it arrived very quickly so it must have been sent out right away. I'm glad I paid about half the cost of a new book but this is already a great read. The discussion is at the intersection of Biblical commentary and modern application of an agrarian lifestyle.
