In the Devil's Snare: The Salem Witchcraft Crisis of 1692 by Mary Beth Norton

3.0

I enjoyed this book despite its assigned nature. The idea that the wars against the Native Americans played a significant role in the Salem Witch Trials was a novel one for me, and I hadn't thought of it that way. The concept that the first few girls at least were not faking their issues was intriguing, as well. Overall, the writing style was a bit dry, but it wasn't that difficult a read.
