In the Devil's Snare: The Salem Witchcraft Crisis of 1692Award winning historian Mary Beth Norton reexamines the Salem witch trials in this startlingly original, meticulously researched, and utterly riveting study. In 1692 the people of Massachusetts were living in fear, and not solely of satanic afflictions. Horrifyingly violent Indian attacks had all but emptied the northern frontier of settlers, and many traumatized refugees including the main accusers of witches had fled to communities like Salem.

Award-winning historian Mary Beth Norton reexamines the Salem witch trials in this startlingly original, meticulously researched, and utterly riveting study.

In 1692 the people of Massachusetts were living in fear, and not solely of satanic afflictions. Horrifyingly violent Indian attacks had all but emptied the northern frontier of settlers, and many traumatized refugees--including the main accusers of witches--had fled to communities like Salem. Meanwhile the colony's leaders, defensive about their own failure to protect the frontier, pondered how God's people could be suffering at the hands of savages. Struck by the similarities between what the refugees had witnessed and what the witchcraft "victims" described, many were quick to see a vast conspiracy of the Devil (in league with the French and the Indians) threatening New England on all sides. By providing this essential context to the famous events, and by casting her net well beyond the borders of Salem itself, Norton sheds new light on one of the most perplexing and fascinating periods in our history.

Our pups' absolute favorites!
Size: 9 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 9 Count (Pack of 1)
Our two little rescue dogs Molly and Layla are very, very, very picky. However, these lamb strips are their ABSOLUTELY favorite treat. They have other favorites, but sometimes aren't in the mood for one or another. But this one-- never! If they see the bag, but I try to give them something else, they both just look at me as if to say, "Forget that. Give us the really good stuff, Mom!" They aren't cheap. So, I ration them out. It's not a daily thing. That keeps them special, too. Here they are in the photo, waiting patiently to get one of these lamb strips from me.
