Those with a taste for life’s mystery and magic are certain to enjoy the 17th
edition of the classic Witches’ Almanac. The 1998-99 issue celebrates time’s
passage with the Celtic tale of Deirdre, Irish heroine of legend; and a tribute
to Apollo, Greek god of the sun, music, and healing. The Timeless Traveler pays
a visit to Mexico City’s famed Witches’ Market. There’s a review of Olde English
chapbooks, the “penny dreadfuls” of the seventeenth century. Wrens, winds,
crossroads, Gypsy lore, and love potions are just a few of the subjects
toughed upon in this edition. As always, the Almanac is richly illustrated
with intriguing, arcane images and symbols. A perennial best seller –
unusual, surprising, useful, and entertaining. $6.95
