The book explores the history of witchcraft in colonial Connecticut, focusing on the famous case of Mercy Disborough, who was accused of practicing witchcraft in the late 17th century. Child examines the cultural and social factors that led to the witchcraft hysteria in Connecticut, as well as the legal proceedings and punishments that were handed down to those accused of practicing the ""black art."" The book also includes a detailed account of the trial of Mercy Disborough, drawing on primary sources such as court records and contemporary accounts. Overall, ""A Colonial Witch"" provides a fascinating and insightful look into the history of witchcraft in colonial America, shedding light on the beliefs and fears that shaped the lives of early Americans.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
