In This Episode:
What really happened during the Salem witch trials? What was the scale, how many women were executed? What were the historical conditions that led to the witch hunt? On this episode of the Chaos and Light Podcast, Angela Levesque speaks with Stephen Hawley Martin about his latest book The Witch of Amesbury. Stephen has a personal connection to these trials and gives us the social and religious context for these infamous trials. We also explore the possibility of a modern-day 'witch hunt', due to the dogmatic view of scientific rationalism.
