Veil of Fear: Nineteenth-Century Convent Tales by Rebecca Reed

Reprints of stories by 2 women who claim to have escaped from convents in the 1830's and the awful things that happened to them there. Their 2 books sold about 300,000 copies each. One book helped spark a night of violence that resulted in the convent (in Charleston, Mass) being burned to the ground by an angry anti-Catholic mob.
