Wicca & Witchcraft for Dummies
I started this book a couple of years ago & never got to finish it; HAD to buy it when I had the opportunity. This book is written in clear, easy-to-understand language, while being in-depth enough to give you a good start on what Wicca & Witchcraft is about. It is written in an entertaining & lighthearted manner - yet still treating the subject w/ respect.... after all, no one ever said that religion - especially this one - can't be fun! It has many contacts (although surely some are outdated, others are still current), as well as ideas on how to find contacts on your own. It covers covencraft, as well as the lone practitioner. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in either becoming a witch; knows someone close who IS a witch; or simply curious about ...

Wicca and Witchcraft For Dummies - and Students!
I bought this book to give me a good overview of Wicca. It does that. It's not a book for in-depth study, but it gives a good outline of topics you can make a note of for further study and reading. This is by no means the only book I'll read and it's not the definitive word on any topic. However, if you know little or nothing about Wicca, and want some good basic information, this is an excellent resource.I bought this book to give me a good overview of Wicca. It does that.
