In the rigid theocracy of Salem, rumors that women are practicing witchcraft galvanize the town's most basic fears and suspicions and when a young girl accuses Elizabeth Proctor of being a witch, self-righteous church leaders and townspeople insist that Elizabeth be brought to trial. Based on historical people and real events, Miller's drama is a searing portrait of a community engulfed by hysteria. 'I believe that the reader will discover here the essential nature of one of the strangest and most awful chapters in human history,' Arthur Miller wrote of his classic play about the witch-hunts and trials in seventeenth-century Salem, Massachusetts.
