Buckland's
Complete Book of Witchcraft
by Raymond Buckland (Introduction)
This 1986 classic is not only an excellent introduction to the Wiccan
religion and earth-based religions in general, it's also a workbook that
can take the serious student to the equivalent level of third-degree Gardnerian.
Though Raymond Buckland was a student of the late great Gerald Gardner,
this manual does not adhere to a specific branch or denomination of witchcraft,
but rather seeks to teach the elements and philosophies common to all,
whether Celtic, Saxon, Finnish, or what have you. Buckland is credited
with bringing the "old religion" to the U.S., and covens and solitary witches
practicing the craft in the U.S. today have him to thank for getting it
out of the closet. While Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft is a must-have
for any serious Wiccan practitioner, it is full of down-to-earth spiritual
wisdom, which makes it a wonderful addition to the library of any broadminded
seeker on the path toward the One. --P. Randall Cohan - Amazon.com

Embracing
the Moon : A Witch's Guide to Rituals, Spellcrafts and Shadow Work
by Yasmine Galenorn
From traditional notions such as the idea that a mirror facing a door
is a magical portal, to contemporary ideas like the construction of a magical
collage from magazine clippings, Galenorn successfully combines the old
with the new in this accessible guide to witchcraft. Emphasis on witchcraft,
because from the start, Galenorn firmly states that she is a witch, not
Wiccan, and while she has nothing against Wicca, she strongly feels the
two are not the same. While this viewpoint may
consternate some readers, she has a point. Compared to the methods
of most covens, her work is much less formal, which many beginners
or solitary practitioners will find attractive and which also makes this
a good book to read if you find yourself in a magical rut. --Brian Patterson,

Wicca : A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Llewellyn's Practical
Magick)
by Scott Cunningham (Introduction)
Living Wicca is the perfect companion to Cunningham's Wicca: A Guide
for the Solitary Practitioner, containing the same concise and comprehendible
style that makes the first book so enjoyable. With Living Wicca, Cunningham
goes beyond the mechanics of the faith and emphasizes the importance of
making Wicca a part of your everyday life. Focusing on the solitary practitioner,
Cunningham encourages you to make your own path within the Wiccan tradition,
and offers simple suggestions, from recycling to visiting the park, that
heighten your spiritual awareness of the mundane world. --Brian Patterson

Wicca:
A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner
by Scott Cunningham
Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner is the essential primer
from one of the best known authors on Wicca. Focusing on the importance
of individualism in your spiritual path, Cunningham explains the very basics
of Sabbats (holy days), ceremonies, altars, and other nuts and bolts of
Wicca that a solitary practitioner may have trouble finding elsewhere.
While Wicca shouldn't be your sole point of reference when considering
Wicca as your way of life, it is one of the best starting points. --Brian
