For those with an interest in British Traditional Wicca here are some books that I would suggest to better your understanding of it. Granted since much of the information about Trad Wicca is oathbound you won't find all the answers in these books. But they will certainly give you a taste of the flavor of Trad Wicca.

"Witchcraft Today" by Gerald Gardner
"The Meaning of Witchcraft" by Gerald Gardner
"High Magick's Aid" by Gerald Gardner (fiction)
"The Witch's Bible Complete" by Janet and Stewart Farrar (Contains the books "What Witches Do" and "Eight Sabbats for Witches"
"Lid off the Cauldron" by Patricia Crowther
"High Priestess" by Patricia Crowther
"Witch Blood" by Patricia Crowther
"The Training and Work of an Initiate" by Dion Fortune
"Wiccan Roots" by Philip Heselton
"Gerald Gardner and the Cauldron of Inspiration" by Philip Heselton
"Triumph of the Moon" by Ronald Hutton
"The Goat Foot God" by Dion Fortune (fiction)
"Lammas Night" by Katherine Kurtz (fiction)
"The Rebirth of Witchcraft" by Doreen Valiente
"Wicca: The Old Religion in the New Millenium" by Vivianne Crowley

Give these a try and I think you'll have a far better understanding of Trad Wicca and perhaps find that it is something you'd like to explore further.

I'd certainly love a tiny sample. You know these will be on my to-read list. My local Barnes and Noble New Age section is starting to get a little "been there, done that" (because I'm lurking around there almost every week), so I'll just order stuff so I can pick it up. Yay, convenience!

amazon.com lets you browse through scanned samples of most of their books.
