Book Synopsis Detestable and Wicked Arts by : Paul B. Moyer
Download or read book Detestable and Wicked Arts written by Paul B. Moyer and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Detestable and Wicked Arts, Paul B. Moyer places early New England's battle against black magic in a transatlantic perspective. Moyer provides an accessible and comprehensive examination of witch prosecutions in the Puritan colonies that discusses how their English inhabitants understood the crime of witchcraft, why some people ran a greater risk of being accused of occult misdeeds, and how gender intersected with witch-hunting. Focusing on witchcraft cases in New England between roughly 1640 and 1670, Detestable and Wicked Arts highlights ties between witch-hunting in the New and Old Worlds. Informed by studies on witchcraft in early modern Europe, Moyer presents a useful synthesis of scholarship on occult crime in New England and makes new and valuable contributions to the field.

Book excerpt: 1973. The Vietnam War ended. Richard Nixon began his second term as President of the United States. The Watergate Hearings splashed across TV screens for months foreshadowing the downfall of a tumultuous administration. OPEC, led by Saudi Arabia, imposed an oil embargo that led to a sharp increase in gasoline prices and to Congress changing the national speed limit to 55mph, AKA “double nickels.” The Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade changed the face of women’s rights in controlling their own bodies. And in Hartford, the capital city of Connecticut, a talented young cat burglar is enjoying her profession and making a good living. She has no idea of the upheavals in her life that are simmering on the horizon. The first is a favor for a high-level mobster. A simple theft, it turns into a night of terror that has far-reaching consequences. At the same time her personal life is upended by familial twists that come out of left field and cause her to re-examine her values, life directions, emotional expectations, and what defines family. As she tries to navigate the twists and turns her life has taken and the unexpected choices she has to make she finds herself being dogged by a tenacious police detective, a determined killer, and the mobster that set her on a perilous course. Fleeing from attempts on her life she changes her name and builds a new life elsewhere. But the past has a way of catching up with you, and her past is closing in fast and furious...

Book Synopsis Wicked Litchfield County by : Peter C. Vermilyea
Download or read book Wicked Litchfield County written by Peter C. Vermilyea and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thieves, rumrunners and rapscallions all color the unsavory side of Litchfield County history. Townspeople accused women of witchcraft simply for not bearing enough children in the early days of the region. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Owen Sullivan and William Stuart took advantage of the county's isolated stretches and a currency shortage to build counterfeiting empires. In 1780, Barnett Davenport's brutal actions earned him infamy as the nation's first mass murderer. Small-time speakeasies slowly took hold, and the omnipresence of alcohol-fueled crime led to the birth of the nationwide prohibition movement. Local historian Peter C. Vermilyea explores these and other devilish tales from the seedier history of Litchfield County.

Historian Michael J. Bielawa investigates such bizarre crimes as the unsolved murder of philanthropist James Beardsley, and the grisly discovery in Yellow Mill Pond during the 19th century, which helped legitimize forensic science.
