Based on her critically acclaimed exhibition, Major Arcana collects the work of photographer Frances F. Denny, who traveled around the U.S. photographing and interviewing a diverse group of people who identify as witches. This book is an exploration of contemporary witchery told through striking photographs and short, inspiring essays written by the “Terry Gross of witches,” Pam Grossman, and the subjects themselves. From occultists and Neo-pagans, to herbalists and Wiccan High Priestesses, Denny’s portraits capture the face of modern American witchcraft and challenge our assumptions about who and what a witch really is.

This book describes a number of significant incidents in the life of a chronic alcoholic/addict. Inexplicably, the first intention of the book is to entertain. The author believes that it is futile to utilize the "scared straight" approach, in an attempt to induce others to seek recovery. Although addiction is far from humorous, the distorted thoughts and predicaments an addict experiences, can be quite laughable. Addiction is a dead end street. This is one addict's journey down that street.
