WHAT OTHER BOOKS WILL HELP ME UNDERSTAND WITCHCRAFT AND WICCA?

Welcome to our recommended reading list and bookstore! We have read the books listed below and believe they have information that will further your knowledge and capabilities in learning the practice of Witchcraft and the Pagan religion. We plan to add to this list on a regular basis.

Open book Modern seekers are avid readers and always eager for new insights and information. The books listed will be very familiar to many readers. But, some titles will be unfamiliar to seekers outside of the United Kingdom. The main point of this selection is that it will provide readers a number of gateways to the work of both familiar and unfamiliar writers whose ideas will, I believe, help to enrich the experience of anyone brought up on endless books about crystals and chakras.

We have divided the list of books into several sections: The initial Tylwyth Teg Reading List, Introductory Craft Books, Intermediate Craft Books, Advanced Craft Books and Reference Craft Books. We have also collected titles from specific recommended authors such as Gerald Gardner, Doreen Valiente, Margaret Murray, Ray Buckland, Alex Sanders, Fred Lamond, Vivianne Crowley, Janet and Stewart Farrar, Ronald Hutton, Yvonne Aburrow, Kate West and others; and specialized books on Druidry, Astrology, Celts, Survival, Tarot and Palmistry. This will help those who are just beginning the pathway as well as provide a more in-depth education for those who are more well informed.

If your local bookstore does not carry a particular title, or cannot locate it for you, try the public library. If you still can't find it, click on the title and order it directly through Amazon Books.

Through our affiliation with Amazon Books, you can buy copies of a large number of these titles directly from their Web site, although not all titles are available at Amazon yet. For those that can be ordered, click on the book's title. You will be taken directly to Amazon's order form for that book. You won't be committed to your purchases until you enter your credit card information. If you have questions about Amazon's ordering, please contact Amazon Orders. It's that simple. Just bookmark this page first so you can find us again! And sincere thanks to those of you who order directly from the link on this page. We appreciate your kindness and support.
