The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft by Rosemary Ellen Guiley
In more than 500 essays and 100 illustrations, the “Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft” examines the arts, practices and people associated with witchcraft. Rigorously researched, the volume draws from a broad range of world history, folklore, obscure texts, modern literature and exclusive interviews with witches of today. The popular image of witchcraft dates from the witch hunts of Britain and Europe in the 12th century, but can be applied to such different sects and philosophies as Satanism, Druidism and even astrology, all of which are investigated in this panoramic look at the craft and its practices.

Poppets and Magical Dolls
$22.95From the Pagan Portals Book Series Poppets and Magical Dolls: Dolls for Spellwork, Witchcraft and Seasonal Celebrations by Lucya Starza Poppets are dolls used for sympathetic magic, and are designed in the likeness of individuals in order to represent them in spells to help, heal or harm.

Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls explores the history of poppets and offers a practical guide to making and using them in modern witchcraft. It also covers seasonal dolls, from Brigid dolls, used in celebrations for the first stirrings of spring, to fairy dolls enjoyed in tree-dressing at Yuletide. Other topics covered include spirit dolls, ancestor dolls and dolls as representations of mythological beings and creatures from folklore.
