When I first met Isaac, I thought he was an odd little man who had to be a bit daft, and was a bit wary about reading one of his books. I was mistaken. Very well researched, thought out and presented, Bonewits' "Essential Guide to Druidism" is a must for any Pagan library, PERIOD. While it is a bit of a dry read in places, it is an excellent example of writing that walks it's talk. There are more books out there on Celtic Pagan/NeoPagan traditions than you can throw a dart and hit, but few.. very few.. would hit the mark. This book is an absolute foundation piece to any Celtic path. Well done! ( )
