Book Description:
Provides an admirable illustration of the general rule that, in Old and New England alike, much of the best sociological history of the twentieth century has only been made possible by the antiquarian and genealogical interests of the nineteenth... This sensitive, intelligent, and well-written book will certainly revive interest in the terrible happenings at Salem.
