The Book of Maggie Bradstreet - Paperback
by Gretchen Gibbs (Author)
Stop a terrible wrong or blindly follow her elders? What happens near Salem when Maggie must choose?
Maggie Bradstreet is a curious girl of thirteen with a mind of her own, which can get her into trouble in Puritan New England. She wants nothing more than to prove to her brother's friend Job that she is no longer a child, but when witches are discovered in the community of Andover, Massachusetts, her world turns upside down. Maggie's diary tells of excitement turned to horror as more and more people are accused of witchcraft, and her best friend's mother is taken off to jail. She tries to save her friends and in the end must save herself.
The Book of Maggie Bradstreet is the untold and remarkable story of what happened to those accused of witchcraft in Andover, just a few miles from Salem.
From a talented new voice in YA historical fiction, Gretchen Gibbs' The Book of Maggie Bradstreet is companion to Anne of the Fens in the gripping Bradstreet Chronicles. The series-historical fiction based on written records about the author's own ancestors-can be read in any order. Each book includes an afterword with additional historical content.
Author Biography
Gretchen Gibbs grew up in a small town in Massachusetts about forty miles from Andover, where The Book of Maggie Bradstreet takes place. When she discovered that her colonial ancestors played a major role in the witch trials in Andover, she had to write the story. She created the diary of a real girl, her ancestor Maggie Bradstreet, who tells through her own eyes of the family's tribulations, both historical and remarkable, that occurred throughout the witchcraft hysteria that hit Puritan New England in 1692.
Gretchen, a psychologist who taught, practiced, and conducted research for many years, has published books and articles in psychology as well as short stories, memoir, and poetry. The Book of Maggie Bradstreet is her first novel. Anne of the Fens is her second.
