In beginning this site, one of my primary concerns is to correct some of the common misunderstandings and misconceptions about this tragic event in U.S. Colonial history. Some of these are so basic that it is surprising that they have become so firmly entrenched in our public consciousness, while others are more abstract, and merit some serious discussion. It is my hope that this might become a forum for some serious discussions focusing on the Salem witch trials, the events surrounding them, and the various theories that have been offered by way of explanation.
