"The Crucible" by Arthur Miller. Tried to tie the Salem Witchcraft Trials to McCarthyism. That wasn't fair to the good citizens of Salem. A lot of those broads got what they deserved!

I am studying history as my college major and one topic I like reading about is New England colonial history, especially the Puritans. I still get riled up about the complete and total nonsense that is peddled in that play. It is crap and does a major disservice to a people we should be admiring, despite that mistake.
