San Leandro, CA: Cora Anderson, 1970. Hardcover. vi, 106 page hardcover, very good but for some scuffing to lower corners; noteworthy inscriptions inside the front cover: "To Kris - My first student, my first Priestess, our coven's first group initiate, our coven's first Priestess - Samhain, 1974. With love, Awen." Below, in a different hand, "Until we meet again, sister, the Godess give you aid in your work and peace in your life, as always, Blessed be, Jalashan." The author has signed the facing page. First edition of this collection of poetry by the co-founder (with his wife Cora) of the Neopagan Feri Tradition. Thomas O. DeLong, the author of the introduction, is better known as Gwydion Pendderwen, who worked with the Andersons to develop the rituals of their lineage.
