Synopsis

Excerpt from Salem Witchcaft: Comprising More Wonders of the Invisible World

But you, gentlemen, I doubt not, are willing to distinguish between truth and error; and if this may be any furtherance to you herein, I shall not miss my aim. But if you find the contrary, and that my belief herein is any way heterodox, I shall be thankful for the information to any learned or reverend person, or others, that shall take that pains to inform me better, by scripture or found reason; which is what I have been long seeking for, in this country, in vain.

In a time when not only England in particular, but almost all Europe, had been labouring against the usurpations of tyranny and slavery, the English America has not been behind in a share of the common calamities; more especially, New England has met not only with such calamities as are common to the rest, but with several aggravations enhancing such afflictions, by the devastations and cruelties of the barbarous Indians in their eastern borders, &c. But this is not all; they have been harass (on many accounts) by a more dreadful enemy, as will herein appear to the confederate.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the terrifying events of the Salem witch trials, a period of widespread fear and paranoia that gripped colonial New England in the late 17th century. The author meticulously recounts the chilling experiences of individuals who were accused of witchcraft, drawing on firsthand accounts of their ordeals and examining the societal context that fostered such accusations. He investigates the underlying religious and philosophical beliefs that fueled the witch hunt, questioning the validity of the prevailing notions of witchcraft and the methods used to identify and prosecute accused individuals. Through detailed accounts of the suffering endured by those accused, the author exposes the human cost of blind faith and the dangers of relying on unfounded fears and unsubstantiated accusations. The book offers a powerful indictment of the witch trials, exposing the profound flaws in the societal framework that led to such a dark chapter in history.
