The book begins by examining the beliefs about witchcraft that were prevalent in Europe during the early modern period. These beliefs were based on the idea that witches were in league with the devil and that they used their powers to harm others. These beliefs were brought to New England by the Puritans, who were a group of English Protestants who sought to establish a new society based on their religious beliefs.

The Puritans believed that witchcraft was a serious threat to their society. They passed laws that made it a crime to practice witchcraft, and they established courts to try accused witches. The most famous of these courts was the Salem Witchcraft Trials, which took place in 1692 and 1693. During these trials, over 200 people were accused of witchcraft, and 20 were executed.

The Salem Witchcraft Trials were a turning point in the history of witchcraft in New England. The trials led to a backlash against the Puritans and their beliefs about witchcraft. In the years that followed, the laws against witchcraft were repealed, and the belief in witchcraft declined.

Witchcraft and the Culture of Early New England is a well-researched and engaging account of the beliefs and practices of witchcraft in early New England. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in the history of witchcraft or the culture of early New England.
