Book excerpt: A look at Witches, Witchcraft and the Wicca tradition from the author of Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft From Abracadabra to Aleister Crowley to Gardnerian Witchcraft to Rosemary's Baby to sorcery and Zoroaster, The Witch Book by the late, great Raymond Buckland is unmatched in its coverage of witchcraft’s historical, practical, and cultural aspects. A student of the late Wicca pioneer Dr. Gerald Gardner, Raymond Buckland has been widely credited with introducing Wicca to the United States. He was one of the world’s foremost experts on Witchcraft, Wicca, and Earth religions. With 560 entries, a resource section, and 114 photos and illustrations, this is an exhaustive exploration of Witchcraft, Wicca, paganism, magic, people, places, events, literature, and more. It shows how, in pre-Christian and early Christian times, Witchcraft (with a capital “W”) was a magical and healing practice associated with early spirtual beliefs, including how the word "Witch" comes from the Old Anglo-Saxon wicce or wicca, meaning a “wise one”: the wiseman or -woman of the common people who had knowledge of herbs, healing, augury, and magic. It also tackles how Witchcraft and paganism were erroneously linked with Satanism, black magic, and pop-culture distortions. It defines both the darker Christian concept and the true concept of Wicca, concentrating on the Western European and later New World versions of Witchcraft and magic. The Witch Book is a broad and deep look at witches, witchcraft and the Wicca tradition.

Download or read book The Witch of Gideon written by Ninie Hammon and published by Sterling & Stone LLC. This book was released on 2021-01-10 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sorceress of psychological suspense is back with the fifth book in her highly-anticipated new Nowhere USA series. Ninie Hammon is at her career-best in The Witch of Gideon — a story that will make you too afraid to go down the basement stairs at night. 10-year-old Lily Topple ran away from home in a little coal town called Gideon on one perfectly normal spring day in 1895 and got lost in the woods. When she found her way back the next morning, Gideon was a ghost town. Everyone had vanished. The Jabberwock took them. Lily stayed in the ghost town. Locals came to call her the Witch of Gideon. And when the Jabberwock returns a hundred years later and imprisons the whole of Nowhere County, systematically making those people vanish, too, former history teacher and genealogist Thelma Jackson seeks out Lily Topple’s daughter, Rose. Now an old woman in a nursing home, Rose claims to know secrets her mother told her about the Jabberwock. Will she reveal what she knows about the creature before it’s too late? A clock is ticking, counting down the minutes the residents of Nowhere County have left to solve the mystery before the Jabberwock “absorbs” them all. Tick. Tick. Tick. ★★★★★ "If you like supernatural horror, told in the unique and distinctive Ninie’ voice of extremely talented stories’ teller, you will enjoy this series. I believe it is Ninie’s best book written in the recent years." -- Klapaucjusz ★★★★★ "This is the 5th in a 7-part series by Ninie Hammon, the most riveting author I've ever read. Unlike other series I've read, Ninie has a unique knack for introducing new characters with their own tensions into the larger developing (impossibly tense) story. I never feel like I'm re-hashing the old, but if you wanted to pick this one up as a stand-alone, you'd be HOOKED as well. How in the wide world is she going to resolve this storyline? What an intense ride this is!" -- K. Koch ★★★★★ "In true Ninie Hammon fashion, The Witch of Gideon keeps the reader on the edge of their seat and not able to stop reading to see what might be coming up around the next corner. Definitely looking forward to the next book." D. Straugh ★★★★★ "Absolutely BRILLIANT newest book in the Nowhere U.S.A. series! Book 5 in this series holds onto the reader's attention from the first sentence and does not let go. Until the last sentence, when all I thought was, it can't be over yet!" -- SharonB The Witch of Gideon is the fifth book in Ninie Hammon's new series, Nowhere USA, a riveting psychological thriller about the residents of a forgotten county that inexplicably sinks through reality to find itself in the middle of Nowhere. Fans of Justified, Under The Dome, and LOST will find themselves right at home in Nowhere USA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Chance She Can’t Miss In 1939, time-traveling, Appalachian farm woman Florie LeBeau fell in love with an 18th-century frontiersman, and vowed to cross time to be with him again. Then war broke out, forcing her to wait four years to travel back two hundred. But when she arrives in 1756, she finds her frontiersman doesn’t know her, Nazi soldiers occupy her historic home, and her only friend a mysterious dog who just might be their spy. A Tale He Can’t Believe Ousted from his home by strange Hessian soldiers, fur trapper Zeke Allen can’t believe his luck when his new hunting dog brings him a woman. Knowledgeable in the ways of pioneer life, the lovely Miss LeBeau could make the perfect wife, if not for her crazy tales of time travel, a club called the Saturn Society, and an impossible war in the twentieth century she insists she comes from—and to which she must return. A Predicament They Can’t Escape Slowly, Zeke begins to believe Florie’s crazy stories as his fondness grows into a love she returns. But the men she calls Nazis tear her away from him, plunging her into a future where she must deliver information that could change the outcome of the war. Finding her way back to Zeke proves difficult. Harder still: convincing others of the truth--and saving her canine rescuer and herself from the Saturn Society, the very people she thought would protect her. Readers who enjoy the Saturn Society won’t want to miss this standalone addition, while those new to the series will find this introduction an unusual time travel story rich in action, romance, and history.

Download or read book Cumberland Music written by Patty Kowing and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I grew up on the tales I heard around my Grandma Frank's kitchen, of life in Kentucky, as told by my mother, Nora, Aunt Lucille, Aunt Annie, Cousin Etta and Grandma. They told ghost stories about Indian princesses and big stallions, funny stories about the big ol' sway back white horse, Dollar. Scary stories, told by the kids as they walked to school, about the wolves following them on the edge of the woods. They fed them biscuits from their shortening can lunch buckets, thinking they were dogs. Stories of fireballs racing through the house at night. Little people, romance, magic, herbs, medicine men and women, witches and Indian kidnappings. I didn't want these stories to be forgotten so I wrote 'The Cumberland Witch' for my grandchildren. But there were so many stories that I couldn't fit into the novel that I began a sequel, 'Cumberland Music'. I named the heroine Music for the 105-year-od midwife that delivered my father in 1912, one week after the Titanic sank.

Download or read book Mountain Mysteries written by Larry D. Thacker and published by The Overmountain Press. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A near-obsessive pursuit of ghost stories and odd superstitions cranks up this serious study of Appalachian tales of the supernatural and their origin in both old-world customs and real historical events. An effort to preserve and record one aspect of a dying way of life, the book relies on interviews and historic documents to search for the facts behind local lore of murder, witchcraft, and weird hauntings. Several campfire-worthy ghost stories are recounted in their entirety—including "The Swinging Gate of Fern Lake Hollow"—and an unexpectedly large number of stories about aliens and UFOs provide an interesting comparison of three-century-old mysteries and those stirred up in comparatively recent times
