About this listen

Almost 40 years since its original publication, Drawing Down the Moon continues to be the only detailed history of the burgeoning but still widely misunderstood Neo-Pagan subculture.

Margot Adler attended ritual gatherings and interviewed a diverse, colorful gallery of people across the United States, people who find inspiration in ancient deities, nature, myth, even science fiction. In this revised edition, Adler takes a fascinating and honest look at the religious experiences, beliefs, and lifestyles of modern America's Pagan groups.

Overall I enjoyed the book. it felt like a decent overveiw of Pagans in North America. The only problems I found, was that the Feminist Wicca section felt very long compaired to others and the Druid section felt lacling as I don't recall any mention of OBOD.

Long in some parts and not long enough in others.
