March is our one-year anniversary here at the Historic Present. So it’s a little American history of our own!
To celebrate, I’ll let you know that we’re about to start a series on the Salem Witch Trials–still a complicated and confusing episode in our history, but at the same time, not the final word on Puritans that it is often supposed to be. Stay tuned!
I look forward to your series about the Salem Witch Trials. Anytime the trials are discussed apart from Halloween, the discussion is bound to be done well.

I agree! For once, I won’t claim to have all the answers, either; it’s still a pretty vexed question about what went on up there.
