Salem Possessed and Other Works Review
A compact review of Boyer and Nissenbaum's Salem Possessed, arguing the witch trials reflected escalating local conflict and legal action by Salem Village against Salem Town, with notes on the moral framing by Miller. The piece also covers Joyce Butler's Pages from a Journal and David Havens's The Woodburners Handbook, praising Butler's home life essays and Havens's practical wood heating guidance, interleaved with authorial commentary and context.
