Escaping Salem: The Other Witch Hunt of 1692 by Richard Godbeer

4.0

A very good book and a nice quick read.

I had to read Escaping Salem for my American Religion class in University. To be completely honest, if I would have stumbled across this book on my own, instead of it being assigned I would have read it.

Escaping Salem, takes on a very narrative perspective.. almost like a historical fiction would. Towards the end of the book however, more actual information form the cases and events get pushed towards you in a very non narrative way.
