Kate W. reviewed Escaping Salem: The Other Witch Hunt Of 1692 (New Narratives in American History) on + 36 more book reviews
Shortly after the Salem Witch trials, a similar occurence rocked Connecticut. This book gives an in-depth view of the events of this time and really gives a new understanding of the mindset of the times. It explains how the events in Salem were not typical of the witch-hunts of early New England, and the Afterword explains how Godbeer was able to piece the puzzle together. I loved it!
