Phyllis Curott’s first book,Book of Shadows, was an inspirational, spiritual memoir that chronicled her journey from Ivy League-educated, New York City attorney to Wiccan High Priestess. By inviting readers of all faiths to share in her own personal transformation, Phyllis debunked many of the myths surrounding Wicca and revealed it for what it really is: a spiritual movement whose tenets of Goddess worship and reverence for Nature were a great deal more accessible and familiar than show more she’d ever expected. InWitch Crafting, Phyllis digs deep into the practices and principles of Witchcraft to provide a comprehensive guidebook that anyone "novices and seasoned practitioners alike" can use to incorporate the beauty and power ofWicca into their own daily lives. Far from being just another mechanical spell book,Witch Craftingis the first book to offer readers not only the how-to of Witchcraft, but also thewhy-to, explaining the profound spiritual tenets behind Wiccan techniques.

One of the Intro books I'd recommend if anyone was to ask. Curott encourages you on nearly every page to *do*, rather than read, which I love and completely agree with. Go witch, witches! We also have a very similar idea about what the spiritual path is for: to connect with the Divine. Curott's definition of a witch is one I gel with.
A bit gender essentialist to my eyes now, I'd love to see a rewritten version of this slightly updated. Overall still a book I refer to and enjoy.
