Reviewer 1152334
Stones in the Glade by Kelley Towns is an excellent general introduction to Witchcraft. I found it to be an enjoyable read full of sensible, practical knowledge and examples of workings. The book includes chapters on history, spirits, divination, herb lore, magical correspondences, holidays, spellwork and more. Although the book is a general guide and not an in depth examination of any one topic, I think practitioners of all sorts can benefit from reading it.Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book.
