Witch Book Recommendation!

Let’s start off with an apology for not being as active! Shit happens y’know.

The book I wanted to recommend is:

Backwoods Witchcraft: Conjure Folk Magic from Appalachia by Jake Richards

This is a book I picked up last summer, and just got around to reading it. I wanted to step out of my normal comfort zone of modern witchcraft I’ve discovered on Tumblr, and go into something more traditional. And what’s more traditional than traditions passed down through generations of families throughout the Appalachians? Backwoods Witchcraft gives you a basic rundown of the traditions of Appalachia. Haints and how to ward them, bottles, dolls, remedies, curses, etc. It gives you a look into their ancestors and spirits of their hills.

A fine mixture of Native traditions and the Lord,  Backwoods Witchcraft is a really good read into a really great folk magic tradition written by a man of the heritage himself.
