Whispers of the Moon: The Life and Work of Scott Cunningham

Scott Cunningham authored more than 50 books in his lifetime, 15 of which lay the foundation for the non-institutional growth of modern Wicca. Whispers of the Moon combines Scott's unfinished autobiography with the added efforts of two of his closest friends. It traces his life and growth as a writer and philosopher-magician, and it also includes some of Scott's poetry, portions of letters, and exposition of his personal philosophy and religion.
