Holly Quick Backlist Reviews, Bookman!: Week 69
Just to get through some backlog of books I've read, I'll post 4 super short reviews of backlist titles every Wednesday.
- The Huron Farmers of the North by Bruce G. Trigger (Thomson Learning, 1969): Useful for research. 4 stars.
- Escaping Salem: The Other Witch Hunt of 1692 by Richard Godbeer (Oxford University Press, 2005): It was pretty interesting. I recommend it as a quick read for anyone who likes witch trials. Ultimately, it goes into why witch trials were and are conducted, so definitely read the afterword if you're going to read it. 5 stars.
- The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone by James Cross Giblin (HarperCollins, 1993): A nice, quick read with a lot of good photos. 4 stars.
- Ancient Panama: Chiefs in Search of Power by Mary W. Helms (University of Texas Press, 1979): Useful for research. 4 stars.
