Cotton Mather and Witchcraft: Two Notices of Mr Upham His Reply (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781540361547)

"Cotton Mather and Witchcraft" is a somewhat more sympathetic look at this figure and his role in the Salem Witch Trials than most. A refutation of contemporary criticism of Mather, it seeks to defend him against such critics by questioning their veracity. It additionally contains a number of secondary mentions of notable sources on the subject, applauds Mather for his intellect, and goes into some slight detail about specters. A fairly good, if largely apologetic, manuscript.
