What Witches Do is a book byStewart Farrar, and is an eye-witness account ofWiccan practices, namely that of theAlexandrian coven run byAlex Sanders and his wifeMaxine Sanders.
Farrar was a practicing witch and a member of an activecoven. In this book, he explores his version of the fundamental beliefs and premises ofWitchcraft and explains his interpretation of itssymbolism. The ceremonies presented are primarily fromAlexandrian Wicca, as practiced by the author and his wife,Janet Farrar.
