Witch-Hunt
: Mysteries of the Salem Witch Trials
by Marc Aronson, Stephanie Anderson
Book Description: Salem, Massachusetts, 1692. In a plain meetinghouse,
a woman stands before her judges. The accusers, girls and young women,
are fervent, overexcited, just on the edge of breaking out into convulsions.
The accused is a poor, unpopular woman who had her first child before she
was married. As the trial proceeds, the girls begin to wail, tear their
clothing, and scream that the woman is hurting them. Some of them expose
wounds to the horrified onlookers, holding out the pins that have stabbed
them -- pins that have appeared as if by magic. Are the girls acting, or
are they really tormented by an unseen evil? Whatever the cause, the nightmare
in Salem has begun: The witch trials will eventually claim twenty-five
lives, shatter the community, and forever shape the American social conscience.
Acclaimed historian Marc Aronson sifts through the facts, myths, half-truths,
misinterpretations, and theories around the Salem witch trials to present
us with a vivid narrative of one of the most compelling mysteries in American
history. Witch-Hunt is a brilliant book that will stimulate and challenge
readers to come to their own conclusions about what really happened during
those terrifying months of accusations, trials, and executions.
