The Witches
By Stacy Schiff
512 pages; Little, Brown and Company
Salem, 1692: A girl begins to convulse, and within a year, 19 townspeople (and two dogs) have been executed. What happened in that wilderness of the New World is one of the first great American mysteries, investigated with relish by Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Schiff.
