This 'Witch book' (as it kept referring to itself) contained 50% practical advice that would work for anyone (particularly prior to the housing bubble implosion) and 50% 'witchcraft' rituals that would make anyone feel silly.
One of the first things the Frosts suggest you do is to devote an entire room in your house to the craft as a temple and to paint circles on the floor of that room (at least 6 feet in diameter depending on how tall you are). If you can't do that, move. Or, don't be a witch. The first time I tried to read this book, I gave up right there, thinking that when I got my own place, I'd pick it back up. However, e`very ritual outlined in this book has a decent shot of not working just because the instructions are near impossible. Unbroken wall running north to south with no electric cables in it? Not in my house. Place you can work outdoors, undisturbed? Not in my city. Seriously, the only thing remotely witchy that this book suggested that I could actually do is to make honegar. Which, I did. Still awaiting results on that.
Having said all that, though, I do think that a lot of the advice proscribed by the Frosts will definitely produce results. I am sort of scared to state anything overtly negative about this book at all because I'm pretty sure that the authors could make my life terribly unpleasant from right where they are with minimal effort, with the intention of 'teaching me a lesson.'
