 Amazing Read September 6, 2008
This book is written VERY well. It gives a great explanation of the roots and core beliefs of Wiccans today. I recommend this book to anybody who is curious about the true lifestyle of modern day wiccans!
Very Informative!! September 5, 2008
I found the answers I was seeking with this book. Great for beginners! Also an excellent informative basic study for all religions to use when referencing Wicca or Folk Magic.
Scott Cunningham's explaination June 9, 2008
The Truth about Witchcraft Today! Is a complete work genius! When I went to study Wicca and learn more then I had on my own. This is the book I was given to read First. And I can see why,. It is a composit of layman's terms into the craft. It gives you a few spells to try and explains the reasons why some spells work and some do not! The ideas behind Wicca and some of the Pitfalls...Scott Cunningham was a excellent writer and we in the Wiccan community miss him greatly. This book is the forerunner to many other authors that give the Common Man a look see into Witchcraft and I recommend this to anyone that is interested in the Craft of the Wise!
I need to keep getting this book April 27, 2007
As a person who practices Wicca, I'm very happy with this book. I always try to have at least 2 copies - one for myself and another to lend. In the long run, I've had to buy about 6 copies because people keep hanging on to mine!
Honestly, I greatly appreciate this as a fairly balanced book for non-practitioners.

The thought of witchcraft may bring about images of flying broomsticks and bubbling cauldraons, green faced hags waiting to butcher your children and house pets. But did you know witchcraft is really a religion that is officially recognized by the U.S. government? Witches do not recruit people via missionaries, but yet still is among the world's fastest growing religions. Numbers estimate members in the millions to as low as several thousand. This is one of the better disinformation guides I have seen on the subject of witchcraft, and while the deceased author's idea of what is normal may differ from my own, we are on the same page as to what is and what is not practicing witchcraft. Don't believe the Hollywood hype of talk show grabage, find out for yourself. Go to a local pagan shop or seek out a local coven. But be warned- they'll make you think they're your friend because they don't appear to be jocks or corporate or holier than thou religious zealots, and they're even worse than Christian missionaries. Until there are Wiccan characters on mainstream TV stations like CBS, NBC or ABC, it is going to continue to be a third rate religion with juvenile, closeted followers. Like SAtanism, in the hands of more talented people, this could've been a real statement. Instead, the only thing most will say is- get a life.
