Book Description

Salem witchcraft will always have a magnetic pull on the American psyche. During the 1692 witch trials, more than 150 people were arrested. An estimated 25 million Americans--including author Diane Foulds--are descended from the twenty individuals executed. What happened to our ancestors? Death in Salem is the first book to take a clear-eyed look at this complex time, by examining the lives of the witch trial participants from a personal perspective. Massachusetts settlers led difficult lives; every player in the Salem drama endured hardships barely imaginable today. Mercy Short, one of the bewitched girls, watched as Indians butchered her parents; Puritan minister Cotton Mather outlived all but three of his fifteen children. Such tragedies shaped behavior and, as Foulds argues, ultimately played a part in the witch hunt's outcome. A compelling who's who to Salem witchcraft, Death in Salem profiles each of these historical personalities as it asks: Why was this person targeted?

This app has made 'reading' more versatile and enjoyable than ever. I can't get enough of the binaural audio processing. It's like a breath of fresh air for my ears. The playback controls are so responsive. No lag at all. A decent listen overall. The narration was clear, though some character voices sounded similar. The story was interesting but had moments where it dragged slightly. Still, it was a good way to pass the time. This served its purpose as background listening while I worked. I probably missed some details but the narrator's voice was pleasant enough.
