It is divided into four sections: Past, Present and Future sets out where Druidry comes from, what it is like now and how it may develop in the future; Druidry in Theory and Practice outlines the fundamentals of Druid practice and the reasons behind them, including the nature of Awen, sacred time and space, etc.; The British Druid Order discusses the formation of the BDO, its development up until 2002, the formation of local groves, gorseddau, etc.; Things to Make and Do is just that – instructions for making robes and rattles.
