8. American Jezebel

Last of the Christmas 2020 gifts. Unusual choice on someone’s part; American history is not really my thing. I certainly learned something from reading it. The centerpiece of the story is Anne’s trial, which unfortunately turned around points of Puritan theology I found difficult to fathom or to follow, but the surrounding social history is interesting. The book feels like the author had to fight to make thin material long enough to satisfy her publisher.
