The interviews begin
After several months, and many long hours in front of a scanner, I’ve mostly completed copying Isaac’s files.

A Biography of Isaac Bonewits
My name is Bill Seligman. I am writing a biography on the life of Isaac Bonewits. I intend to tell the story of his life; how he influenced the Neopagan, Druid, and Wiccan communities; and to include a generous share of "Isaac stories."
