SOUTHBOROUGH, MA -- July 15, 2003 -- Fully ten years after the death of the founder of Alexandrian witchcraft, a handful of witches camping at a secluded site in New Hampshire began experimenting with a spirit board.

An entity responded and identified itself as ‘Alex Sanders’ and then proceeded to prove that claim to them. In the months and years that followed, the group maintained the connection with the spirit of Alex and strove to follow his directives to document each session and preserve them for future generations of the Craft.

For years the original limited edition of A VOICE IN THE FOREST has been talked about among readers, initiates and students of the Olde Religion of wicca. Unbeknownst to them, however, the ‘conversations’ with Alex continued. To the many who believe that death is not an end, but a knot in the thread of life, this new and expanded edition will provide more food for thought.

This expanded account of VOICE provides more-recent documentation of its impact on this small circle of believers as it follows their continued attempts to fulfill a sacred trust -- and it also contains a previously unpublished 1974 interview with Alex and other supplemental materials.

"A VOICE IN THE FOREST is a book that is so fascinating it is hard to put down. This new edition is bigger than the original, and twice as interesting." Hans Holzer, author of The Supernatural: Explaining the Unexplained

"I was sent a book from America called A VOICE IN THE FOREST. I was prepared to be skeptical, as there have been so many false contacts with Alex. I worked with Alex in mediumistic circles for many years and knew his techniques well. The contact described within the book was so obviously true it gave me goose bumps. After Alex’s death, the rites of ‘sending forth’ were performed. This ritual is designed to protect the progression of the soul from those who would disturb them, leaving the spirit free to explore other realms. It would seem that Alex still had something to say, showing that some things never change." Maxine Sanders, as told to "The Guardian", an Alexandrian newsletter
