I know, *gasp* I didn't have to read it in school. I should add it to the TBR list under "classics." <BR/><BR/>So, the only book I've read that relates to witch trials is The Last Witchfinder by James Morrow, which isn't specifically about Salem but it's definitely about witch trials.<BR/><BR/>ntalanATgmailDOTcomNancyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17006274519259391832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-57492571381586728682008-10-15T14:16:00.000-07:002008-10-15T14:16:00.000-07:00Let me in, let me in!

Especially the Robin Cook book. Please include me in the drawing for The Shape of Mercy. I know I would enjoy reading it since it is by Susan Meissner, a favorite author of mine. mamakane at yahoo dot commamakanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12557454084989687455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-19538016865959418702008-10-14T21:21:00.000-07:002008-10-14T21:21:00.000-07:00I'd like to win the book.

It was well acted and told the whole story - and there was something almost "haunting" about seeing it in Salem. We spent a day touring the city, and I was very glad to leave!<BR/><BR/>I know that Susan's treatment of this horrible event in our history would be excellent.
