"Samuel Sewall" is a biographical work written by Nathaniel Emmons, an American theologian and clergyman of the 18th and 19th centuries. The biography details the life and times of Samuel Sewall (1652–1730), a prominent Puritan figure in early American history. Sewall is best known for his role as a judge in the Salem witch trials, his subsequent repentance, and his varied contributions to colonial society in Massachusetts.

Emmons' biography of Sewall provides insight into the complex character of a man who was at once a devout Puritan, a public official, and a social reformer. Sewall's extensive diaries, which he kept for over 55 years, serve as a significant primary source for understanding the social, political, and religious fabric of early New England. Emmons' work draws from these diaries and other historical records to paint a portrait of Sewall, exploring his involvement in the witch trials, his later denouncement of the trials and his apology for his participation, his advocacy against slavery, and his thoughts on various social issues of his time.

The biography is not only a study of an individual's life but also a reflection on the broader Puritan society and the evolution of thought in colonial America. Emmons' narrative aims to contextualize Sewall's actions and beliefs within the framework of the era's prevailing attitudes and the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

As a historical figure, Samuel Sewall is a subject of interest for historians and scholars of American literature, law, and religion. Nathaniel Emmons' biography contributes to the understanding of Sewall's legacy and offers a window into the complexities of early American history and the Puritan mindset.
