Salem, 1692
Suspicion, Betrayal, and Hysteria
It began in 1692 It ended less than a year later, but not before 19 men and women had been hanged and an elderly man crushed to death. The panic spread quickly, involving the most educated men and prominent politicians in the colony. Neighbors accused neighbors, parents and children each other.
As psychologically thrilling as it is historically seminal, The Witches is the fantastic account of this fantastical story — the first great American mystery unveiled fully for the first time
“The Witches is the fullest and finest story ever told about Salem in 1692, and no one else could tell it with the otherworldly flair of Stacy Schiff”
― Joseph J. Ellis, Pulitzer Prize winning author
