Yeah as soon as I have time to critique the entire book of shadows for a relatively old Wiccan tradition I'll get back to you. ;)

The real Alexandrian BOS, of course, was a snapshot of the Gardnerian BOS at the time that Alex Sanders "borrowed" it.
This appears to be an attempt to reconstruct an Alexandrian/Garndnerian BOS as a usuable document of Wiccan practice based on published sources - notably the Farrars, Valiente, and Lady Sheba. The compiler appears to be unaware of Aiden Kelly, Crafting the Art of Magic which includes a fairly complete progression of Gardnerian BOS texts from 1936 on.
Sources are cited, making this a useful research tool as well as a practical BOS for those wishing to learn/practice a Gardner-like path. (You are not, of course, a Gardnerian unless your initiation can be traced to Gardner - no matter how you practice.)
Not a bad text to have in your library, especially if you care about 20th century Wiccan history.
