The Witches' Bane (Unabridged‪)‬

Philip Whitney, a luckless young man who strangely becomes attracted to his family's genealogy, discovers that his American roots began in Salem, Massachusetts during the time of the Puritans. As his search takes him to a witch's house in modern day Salem, a witch that was known to be hanged in 1692, a procession of odd events take him back to the witch trials, where he is to free the woman's daughter, who was hanged for witchery, and bring her to the future. After his arrival at Gallows Hill, 324 years in the past, he is thrown into the Salem jail, where he meets a notorious ancestor and a well-known pirate.
