Another Great Buckey Book

This was a gift for my 18 yr old son , he liked it much better than the old big blue book. I would purchase this again.

Excellent Resource

Raymond Buckland continues to be one of our leaders, bringing us another gem. I enjoyed Wicca for life, it filled in a few gaps "Big Blue" left, primarily the additional spell works. As a resource it's par excel-lance' but I personally missed the study guides. Highly recommend this book! Durk Simmons author of Strings of Connection: Book One of the Witches in America Series

Many imitations: Only one Raymond Buckland!

In a literary genre full of commercial hype and uneducated authors, Dr. Raymond Buckland PhD, is heads and shoulders above the rest. He has been a practicing witch for more than five decades and his current book, Wicca For Life, demonstrates the breadth of his vast knowledge of paganism and witchcraft. There are MANY imitations, but there is only ONE Raymond Buckland! This book is a MUST for all pagans regardless of their level of proficiency.

One of the Best....Buckland classic

Not since Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft a book stands and sells by it self. This book is a huge must and it might be better than big blue?, cause of all the clutter thats in big blue, this book untwist it all for those that can understand wicca a bit more better. Yes!, big blue is very good book and one of the best, however, i think this book narrows it all down for you in a simple way. Remember before you rate it..please read it FIRST. Believe me, you will be impressed and will want more.
