Beschreibung
Set in the late 17th century United States, The Witch of Salem tells an incredible story about the madness of Salem and the history of the times. Cora Waters is the daughter of an indented slave, whose father was captured at the time of the overthrow of the Duke of Monmouth. Together with Charles Stevens of Salem, she is the protagonist of the story, whose main villain is Samuel Parris, the chief actor in the Salem tragedy, a person of fierce ambition that led him to deeds of atrocity unsurpassed. He had scarce a redeeming feature. His religion was hypocrisy, superstition, revenge and bigotry.
