Through firsthand accounts, diaries, and retrospective analyses, this collection delves into the socio-political and religious underpinnings of one of America's most enigmatic episodes.

Hailing from different centuries, their collective works represent an intersection of theology, historiography, and societal critique relevant to understanding Salem's witch trials.
