Description
The 18th Century is one of the most fascinating and complex eras in history. It was an era of enlightenment and revolution. New innovations in science and manufacturing improved the lives of millions. A band of committed patriots in the American colonies sparked a revolution that defeated the world's largest empire. It was an era that helped usher in the modern world.But it was also an era were the belief in witches, ghosts, and sorcery was prevalent. The belief in supernatural forces stood in contrast with enlightenment thinking, which embraced a more rational view of the world backed by scientific study and experimentation. This conflict between old world thinking and the enlightenment played out in the popular press of the 18th Century in both England and its American colonies.HAUNTED LAND uncovers the paranormal tales of Colonial America as told through the newspapers of the time...
