Description
"Nathaniel Hawthorne sends his fictional self-Isaac Page-to 1692 to save the condemned and the family name tarnished by John Hathorne's merciless judgments on the Salem witches. In a final terrifying confrontation with his pitiless ancestor, Isaac finds himself fighting for his life"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
Burdened by familial shame, which began with his great-great-grandfather John Hathorne, the infamously unrepentant Salem witch trial judge, author Nathaniel Hawthorne writes a tale entitled Tooth of the Covenant. In it, he sends his fictional surrogate, Isaac Page, back to the year 1692 to save Bridget Bishop, the first person executed for witchcraft, and rescue the other victims from execution. But when Page puts on Hathorne's spectacles, his worldview is transformed and he loses his resolve. As he battles his conscience, he finds that it is his own life hanging in the balance. -- adapted from back cover
