Witchcraft Today

Although most books on witchcraft were published in the first half of the 20th century, most were written from the perspective of non-witches who were often indifferent or hostile to magical religion. Gardner, himself an initiated witch, unleashed this study of the old religion from the inside in 1954, beginning a movement which continues to gather momentum today. To anyone interested in the early history of modern Wicca, this is the single most essential book.
