New Englander perceptions of les Canadiens in the Intercolonial war period (1688-1763)

In 1692, Canadiens and Indigenous peoples were a frequent fear of the New England population, and this fear would continue to 1763, as the populations fought a series of intercolonial wars. Consulting Salem witch trial records and captivity narratives, B. Morin explores how New Englanders perceived their Canadien neighbours and enemies during the intercolonial wars, and what material consequences these perceptions would have on the populations - including those accused of witchcraft.
