Are you curious about witchcraft or do you already know a bit but would like to find a non-dogmatic book that gives you an overview about all that witchcraft entails?
The Everything Witchcraft book by Marion Singer is an excellent beginner's course in witchcraft for the novice witch or wannabe Wiccan. It helps you understand the difference between the religion Wicca and the magickal methodology of witchcraft. The language is succinct and easy to understand.
Everything Witchcraft provides a historical background to modern Wicca and witchcraft, and touches on all areas of learning that a witch might encounter on her journey.
This is not an indepth study of any particular subject, but does provide you with a very good understanding of the basics. It also gives you ideas, correspondences and tools to start practising.
I give this book 4 out 5 because it has the fun factor, which is very important. I would have given it 5 out 5 if it weren't for the fact that I felt a bit let down by the history section which felt a bit flimsy. Anyone who makes historical claims needs to be able to back them up.
Bright blessings,

PS. For those of you interested in history, I recommend The Triumph of the Moon by Ronald Hutton.
