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

5.0

Top-notch historical account of the Salem Witchcraft crisis, which Norton reads in the contexts of settler colonialism and Indigenous resistance (though she doesn't call it that, quite). She points out that many of the white accusers were refugees from "Indian wars" just north of the Salem area.
