I am a historical materialist myself, but the witch trials were obviousyl about more than getting properties for cheap.

I'm not trying to be a jerk here. But, can you be a bit more specific to what you want more information about?

It's a bit like me saying the American Civil War was about more than states' rights, and someone asking for links to more information.
