This is the only ethnography of a living community of witches in the United States. Ravenwood, based near Atlanta, is one of the largest American covens and has supported and encouraged this research through to publication. Of unprecedented importance in clearing the name of witchcraft, the leader of the coven is a civil rights activist, still dedicated in her wiser years to the individual's right to freedom of religion. A must read in women's studies, shamanism, comparative religion and American studies.
ALLEN SCARBORO is Chairperson and Professor of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Millsaps College.
NANCY CAMPBELL was Professor of Psychology at Birmingham-Southern College while researching for this book.
SHIRLEY STAVE is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Waukesha.
