Stars 5/5
The Witches: Salem, 1692 by Stacy Schiff
The religion that the victims of this tragedy worshiped is the religion that killed them in the end. This book was written and reads so very well but the religious ignorance of the people angers me. As I was reading the true accounts of the trials and the utter nonsense, I really started to wonder if maybe since this time our brains somehow evolved and the logic we believe is just "common sense" is something people of the witch trials never had. The books goes into so much fine detail of the accounts it is almost like you are there. I highly recommend this book.
