This book is a great book of fiction, but a terible source for anyone interested in neodruidic practice. Monroe basis his assertions on the book of Pherylt, a KNOWN forgery from the 1800's. He claims that ancient druids used Echinacea when it is a plant found only in the new world and he repeatedly asserts that women were not druids when the historical accounts clearly state that they were.

Good for fiction, bad for serious study!
