The Crooked Path: An Introduction to Traditional Witchcraft by Kelden

informative medium-paced

2.75

This book is fine. I wasn’t impressed by it. It has some good information in it, but some important things are left out that beginners would need to know to fully understand it. It also aims to explain how traditional witchcraft is different from wicca, but everything taught in the book is heavily based in/similar to wiccan traditions, which disappointed me because I was looking for information on witchcraft that’s not based in wicca. I was also very disappointed in the lack of folklore. The book says that’s an integral part of traditional witchcraft but only includes a select few sections on it. I at least feel like there was some information to be gleaned from it, but I would recommend other books over this one for pretty much anything you’re looking for.
