The Crucible by Arthur Miller


A recount of the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. This is a rare case where the film was true to the book (or play in this case). I am pleasantly surprised. Easy to read but could be very difficult to follow if you are not familiar with the characters. There are many characters and they all play significant roles. Though not 100% historically accurate it is still beautifully retold in a way that's much more reader friendly. Even though it is written as a play, the story comes through perfectly to the reader. This is one of those American history classics that everyone should read at least once.
