Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be accused of being a witch? In the 1680s it was a common tactic to accuse a person of your disliking of being a witch. The Witch of Blackbird Pond, by Elizabeth George Speare is a great account of what it was like to live during this time. The book tells of a local Quaker being accused of witchcraft, which leads to a trial and tons of heartbreak. An ordinary person should not be allowed to accuse someone of being a witch without proper reasoning. It is completely impartial and unfair to those who are accused and involved. The time period this book addresses is within the 1680s, during this time religion was a main factor in how someone carried out their daily life. This time period also contained many other witch trials, including the most infamous one, The Salem Witch Trials. This portion of history is important because without learning the effects of wrongly accusing someone, the courts may currently be prosecuting innocent people based solely off of someone’s opinion or statement.
