Fantastic- By: , 03 May 2004 Having recently had to write a 3,000 word essay on the origins of the Salem Witch Trials, I found this book invaluable. Boyer & Nissenbaum convey astute arguments with the evidence to back it up. There's no way I could have gotten through my essay without this book, & even if you're not prouducing written work on the Trials, this is a thoroughly enjoyable & interesting read.Useful- By: , 22 Oct 1999 This book cannot be avoided if an analysis of the Salem Witchtrails is being carried out. It is reasonably priced & puts its arguments across both accurately & coherently.
