Old Salem is a historical novel written by Eleanor Putnam and published in 1899. The story is set in Salem, Massachusetts, during the late 17th century, a time when the town was infamous for its witch trials. The novel follows the lives of several families living in Salem, including the Putnams, the Proctors, and the Nurses, who are all caught up in the hysteria surrounding the witch trials. The story is told from the perspective of a young girl named Mary Putnam, who is a member of the Putnam family. Mary is torn between her loyalty to her family and her growing doubts about the accusations being made against innocent people. As the trials continue, Mary must confront the harsh realities of the Salem witch trials and the toll they take on her community. Old Salem is a gripping tale of paranoia, fear, and the dangers of mob mentality, set against the backdrop of one of the most infamous events in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
