In 1692, fear and suspicion spread through the small community of Salem Village, Massachusetts, leading to a series of accusations known as the Salem Witch Trials. Why did neighbors begin accusing one another of witchcraft, and how did the courts respond to these claims? What happened to those who were accused, and what lessons did the colony learn from this troubling time? Supporting state and national social studies standards for grades 3-5, this book provides a clear, straightforward overview of the Salem Witch Trials and explains why this event remains an important part of American history.
