Seventeen years ago, author and poet r. wolf baldassarro began a journey down an ancient spiritual path steeped in mystery that suffered from 2000 years of twisted misinformation; a wolf in the shadows reflects the culmination of that journey. within these pages he shares his knowledge and insight into a religion that still evokes prejudice, shock, and fear. pagans walk among us in this multi-cultural modern world. they are friends, coworkers, and the person next to us in checkout lanes. fear not for the soul of your son, your classmate, your neighbor; they simply walk a path of light that is no different than your own. this reference is written for those outside of the faith who want a simple and straightforward explanation of what exactly paganism is all about. put your fears and your presumptions aside and learn the truth about the old religion from someone who has walked for many years in both worlds. only through knowledge can these two worlds understand each other and coexist.
