Finally got this book from Amazon.  A must read for those who aren't hereditary witches by birth.  But had relatives that practice the Old Ways , this I can relate on page 110 of this book.
I myself am not a hereditary witch. But my family practice some of the old ways.  My mother's family come from Worcester Massachusetts. My grandmother could read tea leaves,  use a pendulum,  communicate with spirits. My mother had the ability to read people,  my aunt talked to birds. On my father side. He claimed they were druids.  And worshipped under oak trees. Oak trees were symbols of the Gods such as Odin and Goddesses such as Hecate.  And they are of the few trees that are linked to the Fae Folk or Faery folk. So yeah i can relate to this book..
For me it is a great book.
