What is a good book about Salem witch trials?
A really good book is Salem Witch. I don't know the author, but it has two sides of the story, one of the accused person, and the other of the the accuser.

Who were the first people to be accused during the Salem Witch Trials?
The religious zealots. <----- This answer is not true. The real truth is that in 1688, Samuel Parris was invited to preach at the church in Salem, Massachusettes, and to bring his family, his wife, Elizabeth, his six-year-old daughter Betty, niece Abagail Williams, and his Indian slave Tituba. The village girls were caught fortune-telling with Tituba, and to save themselves, blamed older women and men of being in league with the devil, and forcing them to do witchcraft. The accusers were all young girls. 25 people died between June 10th and October 1st, 1692.
