This is a great introduction to some of the old folk magic and cures. My grandmother used many of these and I just took it for granted that everyone did these kinds of things! All of Silver's books are excellent. They are written for different audiences, so some of them may not appeal to you as much. I learned many new things, as well as learned the background to some of our family's traditions.
Easy reading, very informative.

I orginally picked this book up while browsing through the library. I couldn't put it back and am currently searching for a copy of my own. Silver Ravenwolf writes in a very down-to-earth, easy to understand format that keeps the reader interested, without omitting important information. She is obviously dedicated shown by her diligent research in a field where many are not willing to speak aloud what is in their hearts. I commend the author in leaving the opportunity for all religious faiths to adopt the different spells & charms to use for themselves. One aspect of being truly Wiccan is never saying ones beliefs are the "right" and "only way". Silver Ravenwolf encourages thinking for oneself & religious tolerance.
good book for those who are interested in HexCraft

For people who are interested in reading about the Dutch Country Magick, this isnt' a bad book. Ravenwolf packs it with quite a bit of information,and shows many of the charms used by the Pow Wow Artists. It also shows her struggle in trying to write the book, as well as other things. Definitly a decent read if interested in Pow Wow, or desitring ot read more of Ravenwolf's books.
