Deb13b Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Not the ones published by Llewellyn or Quantum, I mean these ones, originally started by Elizabeth Pepper, in 1971, the year I was born http://www.amazon.co.uk/Witches-Almanac-Spring-Complete-Harmony/dp/0977370348/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1229201598&sr=8-3 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Witches-Almanac-Complete-Guide-Harmony/dp/097737033X/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1229201598&sr=8-4 I saw a thread in this forum a little while ago about a book called "Witches All" by Elizabeth Pepper, which was a compilation of bits & pieces in previous editions of the Witches Almanac. I liked the book so when I saw the 2009-2010 Almanac in Waterstones bookstore I got it. What a fascinating read ! Lots of historical info, great pictures of woodcuts, work by many different authors etc. There's a website with some other articles & you can order back copies. http://thewitchesalmanac.com/index.html LOL, I'm putting this on here but I bet you all knew about it, am I the ONLY person on this board to have missed these little gems ??!!

Amber Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 NO NO NO you're not the only person to have missed it!!!!! I bought one of these about 5 years ago.. how could I have forgotten they exist???? You are not alone Deb.... and I just checked tentatively with my beloved who informed me that actually he has already bought me a witchy diary for Xmas (and it won't be this one!). {{goes off to shed a tear in the corner, in secret LOL}}:sickwitch: Go on.. buy it.. you know you want to!

Morgana Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Thank you. I've tried the others and did not like them. I guess I will have to order this one and give it a go. And no you are not the only one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Landieth Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I found the Witches All book to be great.. don't have any more of Elizabeth Pepper's publications atm (at least I think..) but I'll check out this site. Thanks Deb! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgana Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 How long does it take for this company to ship? I'm still waiting! :glass: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinney Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I was given a load of books a while ago and it has the witches almanac 2008, I usualy give Llewelyn a wide birth, I find it very new agey and quite wiccan with all of its goddesses etc. I have not had a really good look through it yet as i did look like the stuff I dont personally bother with.

Grymdycche Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Dunno, they're out there in Borders though. I got mine last summer. Good read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgana Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Finally got mine.....but could have told me it starts in March 09! Now I went and ordered the 08, discounted, and am waiting for that one. But I have to admit that it is a good read! Have been reading and looking thru it for a week now and have learned quite a bit! Thanks for the suggestion! But now I know when to order them! :dancing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
