Salem Witchcraft, Volumes I and II: An Account of the Village of Salem and the History of Views on Witchcraft and Related Subjects by Charles Upham is an important study of a dark and sometimes macabre chapter in New England history. The author analyzes in detail the events that took place in the colony in the 17th century, when mass persecution of those accused of black magic was launched. In his work, Ufam considers not only events from the life of "witches" and the processes that took place around their courts, but also broad socio-cultural, religious and philosophical aspects of this problem. This book will be a useful resource for anyone interested in the history of witchcraft and religious persecution in America.
