This book goes into the life of Scott Cunningham, explaining where his beliefs came from, and why he was the man he was. It is a touching look at a brilliant man. Scott has influenced many new Wiccans on a solitary path, letting them know that you don't need a Coven to be a Wiccan.

Written with many personal stories of Scott's and his friends', it details Mr. Cunningham's life from birth to how his death affected the Pagan community. I found this book very complete and informative about a man I admire deeply and whose work helped lead me to the path I follow today. Most of all, it showed how Scott was human like the rest of us. He was humble, loved the Goddess deeply, and wanted his work to be the best it could possibly be. The recounting of his death is particularly touching and handled well.

A section of photographs show Scott at various times in his life including photos of Hawaii, a board game he created, and his books. The book ends with the complete text of his booklet "A Formula Book of Magical Incenses and Oils", a complete list of his writings, Cunningham's astrological chart, and notes from one of his workshops. If you are a fan of Cunningham's work, do yourself a favor and pick this book up to learn more about this great man and his life.

This book was a touching biography of Scott Cunningham, and I found myself finishing it the same day I got it. Scott Cunningham is, without a doubt, my favorite Wiccan author, and after reading this book, I can't but help feeling sad because I never had the opportunity to meet him. The pictures in the book are beautiful and touching, and you get a better feel for what kind of person he was by them. That having been said, I felt that the book could've been longer than it was. Scott Cunningham was such an incredible person and I'm sure has touched the lives of an endless number of people (myself included), that I don't think any biographical book would've done him justice. It is still a good read, and very touching. It's very obvious that he was well-loved by a lot of people.
