Reviews

LaPlante's touching biography seems hauntingly timely. Beneath the sensational title is a figure more familiar than we realize. -- New York Times Book ReviewAn intriguing journey into a world as far away as colonial America - and yet as close as the human heart. -- Christian Science Monitor"LaPlante's splendid biography brings a personal touch to Sewall's story and his efforts to take the difficult but righteous path." -- Publishers Weekly"Insightful...a reformative, assenting spin on Salem's hellfire and brimstone history." -- Kirkus Reviews
